Not a real exciting day today, but it was nice. Van, Anita, Jeff, Lili and I had a mid-afternoon dinner. We visited John and then visited Laurie and Darryl for an outrageously sinful dessert.
John's been getting feedings via the NG tube. The stuff is called Jevity. Looks kind of like chocolate milk but not really. Probably a good thing he can't taste it. He's still pretty weak and tired. Tomorrow he goes to the local hospital for blood products and ultrasound.
Thanks, anonymous poster, for your comments. I think his MELD score is under 30, but his INR creeps up quickly without fairly frequent plasma, platelets, etc. He spent some time at AGH in January but wasn't evaluated there because we decided to go to UPMC. He definitely needs a transplant.
