Surgery again, bleh...

Paul had an okay night. He's having a more permanent dialysis port put in today since he'll be going home on dialysis. They'll put him under conscious sedation, so he wasn't allowed anything to eat or drink after midnight. They will put the port in as well as a feeding tube. They just want to make sure he's getting enough nutrients and that's the best way, plus all the discomfort of having it put in can be done while he's under so it shouldn't bug him much.

He's about to get dialysis this morning, then the procedure will be this afternoon. I'll let you all know more when he's out of that. I think I'll go to work for a few hours this morning while dialysis chugs away.

Please pray that this mini-surgery goes well and he recovers from the conscious sedation well.
