Hi everyone!  Chip was d/c'd from Durham Regional yesterday (7/28/11) at 5p.  He's doing pretty good.  Still has one of his incisions that tends to bleed, but not as bad as it was while at the hospital.  His kidneys are getting better, but not back to normal just yet.  He has a couple of hurdles to jump, but overall, he's doing well.  Goes to the Wt Loss Clinic Monday for more labs and then to see the kidney doc.  They had to give him so much fluid (15 liters/40+lbs) that he did not lose any additional wt while at the hospital, but as of this am, he is back to where he was just before surgery.  We know he's not supposed to worry about the scales, but he really wanted to see what was going on.   Well, hope all is well w/you and maybe he'll feel like getting on here before too long.

Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes! 
Michelle
