Knock on wood and stuff

    Dad's new dialysis place is working out well so far. Everybody's very friendly, they seem quite competent, and they bring him to the back from the waiting area promptly. Just like at the other place, they had trouble getting his arm to stop bleeding at the end of his first dialysis session Tuesday. I suggested that maybe he should suggest in turn that they could stop prescribing him blood thinners, including aspirin. Maybe this would also help with his shortness of breath. Anyway, it's a thought.
    Unfortunately, 11:30 is a very busy time for them, so their excellent loading/unloading setup isn't a lot of use. Today, there was already an ambulance and a minivan in the way. But we coped. Also unfortunately, St. Paddy's day is going to prevent us using our usual route through Five Points Saturday. Again, I expect that we'll be able to cope.
