Yesterday afternoon Jeremy went to the hospital for a minor surgical procedure to graft a fistula in his arm for dialysis. He does not need dialysis right now, but since they take a few weeks to heal enough to be useable, they want to do it early as a precautionary measure. This is partly because one of the tests he needs to get approved for a transplant carries a small risk of completely shutting his kidneys down. If that were to happen he would need to go on dialysis right away.
The surgery went really well. He hasn't had much pain at all. Just a little bit when he rotates his wrist. He wasn't allowed to eat before the procedure at all, so he was pretty hungry when he got home. He ate some leftover cod pieces (tee hee) and macaroni and cheese. He made a sandwich, and ate some Oreos. And he asked me to pick him up a couple of double cheeseburgers at McDonald's. I spent a total of $7.07 at McDonald's and also got a double cheeseburger and a small fries for myself.
Breakfast: smoothie with frozen banana, mango, milk, and strawberry sorbet
Lunch: leftover mac and cheese
Dinner: McDonald's double cheeseburger and small fries
Snacks/desserts: Reese's peanut butter Oreos, strawberry sorbet, protein bar
