Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day, all!

It was a beautiful Boston day, which once again was spent by myself in the hospital.

At least there was quite a bit of variety during the day's new admissions: two dialysis patients (one admitted with fever, the other with a clotted catheter), three new consults (at least one of which gets the "interesting" label), one kidney transplant patient with a heart problem, and one sick patient in the ICU who needed to start dialysis semi-emergently. And there's still a decent chance I'll get called in the middle of the night to help a pair of dialysis patients get a kidney transplant which may be available.
