They started Kenzen on Dialysis yesterday to help his kidneys and get some fluid off of him. He is really swollen which is normal but they need him to shrink back down before they can close his chest and start working on removing the tubes. He has responded very well to that and gotten alot of fluid off and also his kidneys are slowly starting to function better. Today they opened his patch on his chest up and looked to see how his heart is doing and if they could close him yet. They weren't able to close him but they cleaned out his chest and lungs really well which they were concerned about how they were looking on chest xrays. After they did that his xray looked great. They think they will be able to close his chest either tomorrow or Monday and then we will work on weaning him off of the dialysis and they are also going to start feeding him a little bit. After he is off of that then they will work on weaning him off of the breathing tube. It sounds like he might be off of all of that in the next week and a half. He is doing great and we are confident that he is receiving the best care possible and will be able to come home soon.
