Wake up dad!

The problem now, as the doctor has explained it to me is that he won't wake up. We can see that this is not usual. The other patient who had the operation at the same time is now flirting with the nurses (at least the female ones). Dad still seems asleep. If they shout at him he will open his eyes, some. But not much. This is now a problem they say. He has been off all sedation for at least a day now. Nothing is keeping him asleep. So why is he still sleeping. They are not sure. Maybe its because both his kidneys and liver are not operating properly. The medication he has been on has not been processed out. Maybe there something more wrong with his mental state than they thought. They're not sure. But his kidneys and liver are a problem. They doing a doppler scan of his renal arteries. If there is a clot the they say that would be bad. But it may be something like not find quite the right level of fluid he needs. They are doing more tests. In the meantime they are going to put him on a slow form of dialysis and give his kidneys a chance to rest. If its just a matter of adjusting to the new blood flow, maybe a short term dialysis will do the trick. As for the liver, they think maybe there is a blockage there as well. They did an ultra sound to try to determine whats going on there. We will have to see. In the meantime as long as he sleeps, perchance to dream, we have problems. In other news, my brother gave me quite a scare when he fainted in the waiting room. He had some food poisoning (we think) and it just got to be too much for him. He spent the afternoon sleeping it off. He leaves tomorrow. I will miss him when he goes. Its a lot harder without him, I found out today.
