Good news today. Dad had some fluid drawn from his abdomen. The fluid was tested and was "not consistant with malignant ascites"....his doppler scan was negative for portal hypertension. Therefore, the result is diuretics, bed rest, low sodium diet, and go home tomorrow! The dr. says it is just a complication of his bilirubin backing up. What a relief!?! What a roller coaster ride. Maybe I won't have anything exciting to say for awhile.
Thanks for the prayers, obviously this guy is proof they work.
