You can never have enough...

Putting in a port so staff can take some of the fluid off will make him a lot more comfortable. If the fluid is allowed to build up it ends up bleeding through the skin and is very distressing to deal with, but the patient has to be strong enough to deal with the port procedure. Unfortunately with my friend J, it wasn't something they considered worth doing.

So the fact they are considering the procedure for Mr P is a very positive sign...

He is already bursting into blisters then popping on his legs. Has had that happening for years. No one seemed to know what was causing it. Even did skin bi-opsys etc. 

I wont know what the plans are until I track him down tomorrow. 

I told him not to bother taking his phone, cos he either loses them or they come home broken. So thank goodness I have many many minutes built up. Nearly 3000 I think.

Its getting into his lungs, and they are poor at best
