Anders has a slow sodium level. Fortunately, his initial tests have come back negative for infection. They have stabilized his sodium level at 121. Anything below 120 and they start worrying about health problems, seizures being the worst case scenario. It seems like the initial tests are showing that he was just low on the amount of sodium he was getting, nothing more. They have boosted his amounts of sodium so that should be reflected in his next lab work around 6 pm. It's funny how things change from babyhood to adulthood. Most adults would love to have low sodium! Needless to say, we took deep breaths when that initial test came back.
Correction: Roger Bannister ran the 4 min. mile, while Floyd Bannister was a pitcher for the Royals in the 1980s. Caught that mistake all on my own without a google. Interestingly, he son Brian now pitches for KC.
The move to Edina is going smoothly. I am, however, having a bit of trouble finding the internet. That problem should rectify itself soon as Becky has promised to call Bill Curtis for me. I also could not figure out how to get the downstairs shower door to shut completely this morning, but received the lesson on that one. Also, I have a bag of shoes and slippers that has "gone rogue," so hopefully those will turn up between Minneapolis and Edina. I also need to find a running path in Edina.
We had a nice visit from Anna's grandma, uncle, aunt, and cousin today.
Also, yesterday, we attended a friend's bbq right in the path of the storm that hit MPL, which you may have seen on the news.
I still don't have my Brett Favre jersey, but we are working on that. Brett Favre causes Anna revulsion, so we might go with an Adrian Peterson onsie for our A. Peterson instead.
Anna also wants me to now post my updates on caringbridge, but I fear they might be a bit too whimsical for her taste...
