A Man's Gotta Drink

My brother is back in the hospital, a satellite campus of Henry Ford in West Bloomfield. He is there because he is dehydrated. He was given fluids yesterday and sent home, but apparently that wasnt enough and he ended up coming back in today. When I talked to my sister in law, she mentioned he was eating a cheeseburger... so that is good! We just need to keep liquids in him....

My mom told me that your colon helped absorb fluids into your body. Well, since he does not have one of those anymore, he needs to consume a lot more liquid. I guess there is a balance that he will figure out. Until then, he is in good hands so I do not worry. I can't wait until he is well.

Today was long, was it just me? I think I am tired. It may not be long before I climb under the covers and nod off to dream land, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
