Our trip to the ER

Today when Bill was at dialysis his blood pressure went really high....really high. They gave him some medicine and let him go. He was concerned and called Dr. Cline. He told us to go straight to the emergency room. His BP was OK when we got there, but soon thereafter it skyrocketed. We did get to come home. Evidently when they take less fluid, there is a greater need to take more BP medicine. This might be an ongoing challenge as he is on dialysis. He is feeling fine, and we did not have to spend the night. Just thought you all might want to know.

What a crappy way to get through life. I really hope things start looking up for you guys. I can't even imagine how hard this is on Bill. I'm sure he is having a difficult time getting through this. But thinking of the alternative, at this point, we are so grateful that we have our awesome papa bill around!! We love you, Bill!! We pray for you always and hope things get better and not worse and sooner rather than later:)
