thursday, march 20

please pray for dad's weight to increase. he's lost weight everytime he goes back in for dialysis. they weigh him before and after, and he's not gaining any positive pounds between dialysis treatments. also, when he gets the treatments they take off several pounds in fluid alone so he needs to be able to counterbalance and actually overcompensate for the dialysis treatments. he's having trouble with his swallowing. his throat hurts and it's tough to get things down, so they'll be doing a swallowing test (barium) to figure out what's going on with his throat muscles.

You continue to pray for the kidney function, and now the weight and swallowing. My God bless you this Easter season!

Love, Mark, Laurie and the kids
