well my dad was going to the OR this morning and they checked his kidneys again and there not a 100% so they can't put the dye through his system so after not sleeping last night [me]we have to wait until the drugs work on them to clear for the dye test to see where the blockage is and if they can put a stent in not shunt I think I said yesterday. So I am praying that the drugs work for him so the kidneys won't fail. once that happens your on the machine for life. thanks for the hopes and prayers. he got a lil pissed at me I read off my tests for my cholesterol was 297last time it is 247 now /triglycerides were 453 now 172 which is getting better with no drugs hdl was 42 now 48. so I am going in the right direction. I hope tomorrow they will find the blockage and can fix it with a stent and not bipass surgery thanks again ps the nurses said she has never seen a more up beat family in there, I said its just a mask so he does not worry about us and mom its tuff after we leave or talk on the phone with him some times. thanks artie
