Continuation from the post written a few minutes earlier....hit wrong button........

Any way......................Lee was able to continue on into the building independently!  I have to tell you that it was reminiscant of the times many, many years ago when I had to leave my children @ kindergarten and they did not want me to walk inside the building with them.  I drove away, and as of long ago, I DID look back. 

When I went back to get him later in the evening he was in the back working the weights.  He looked so good.  I was amazed at the difference.  He also said that he was able to walk three rounds and only had to stop and rest once.  He has been moving about more often in the apartment and getting up out of his recliner more.  I believe the extra movememt is making him more independent and also making him stronger.

Last night he ate a big meal for supper and tonight he will have pot roast, potatoes, carrots, gravy, carrots and Sister Shubert rolls.  Our neighbors are joining us and they are bringing a salad and fresh asparagus.  It is good to see Lee eating again and I am trying very hard on this new potassium restricted diet to help him.  We now have to eliminate many good things to eat:  tomatoes, peaches, bananas, orange juice, turnip greens, just about all the good fruits and veggies.  Unfortunately that is what I have been pushing.................now we are told to  restrict them for the time being.

Lee is still on the every six hour I.V. and I am still losing my sleep.  This will continue for at least another two weeks. 

More Later........................................Brenda
