Thanks Fen.
Update, Dad still in but I knew they wouldn't let him out with it being bank holiday.
He has had a nice couple of days as they allowed me to bring him home for the past two days until 4pm.
He really enjoyed his roast dinner yesterday and today I went to the fish shop for him, he said he fancied a fish with scraps on for his dinner, he demolished that no bother lol.
He's been watching snooker and playing his keyboard and thoroughly enjoyed the time at home.
It's been nice for him because it has broken up the day as everyone knows how boring it can be in hospital.
He can't read as he is almost blind, completely in one eye and minimal vision in his other eye so he really struggles to read, he manages TV when its a big screen. He has Glaucoma. His vision in his good eye is deteriorating which is worrying but he takes it all in his stride, he has no choice really as there is nothing that can be done to stop it.
His potassium level is still high but its now come down to 5.8 so its slowly coming down. They are still concerned about his kidney function. I'll be glad when we get to see a doctor tomorrow then we will know more.
Fingers crossed he can come home tomorrow.
Hope you are all enjoying your Bank Holiday.
