I just got off the phone with Far Away Sister. Dad has lost 7 pounds since he went back on the super powerful diuretic that makes his kidneys fail. We are pleased, but we're also concerned that Sister is going to see this as proof that Dad is fine and we don't need to worry. One of the nurses at the assisted living place where he lives was off yesterday, and she told Sister that she was thinking about Dad all day because she was so afraid his overworked heart would just give out.

We think he will probably survive this round now, but don't know when the next round will begin. We're back on the roller coaster.

Daughter is home today. Fog this morning resulted in the workshop closing. We made her proof read the bulletin and then fold it this morning. She is sooooo slooooow. This afternoon I'm going to drag her with me on a visit. She's not pleased, and asked if she had to go. Interestingly, she didn't ask if she could stay home alone, she asked if I could find someone to take care of her. Yet she still talks about wanting to live independently....
