New adventures haven't stopped since we stopped sailing.
Now my adventures are technological.

He Is Home !

Dave got home about 5 this afternoon.  Yahoo!   It was a long day for him and Todd and Kari.  They came home armed with lots of instructions and lists.  Included were new prescriptions and over the counter medicines that would not stress his kidneys. An even bigger list prompted a clearing of the medicine cabinet of the cold remedies. head ache or body ache and other.  We did keep a few things to put in the guest bath.  After the past week we did not want any chance for further damage.  The last meeting was with the dietitian.  Basically he needs a low fat diet with natural foods.  One of the big concerns is the additives in packaged or prepared food.  Another concern was with alcohol.  He can have one very small glass - 4 ounces a day.  The last direction was to eat often and slowly. For a person that tends to eat quickly and not snack these two could take some time to change. Limited wine might also be a problem but I got the impression that how he felt the next day would take care of wanting it.  Now we just have to figure out our new routines.
