Out of choices......

We got the lab reports from last week.  Babygirl's kidneys are functioning so poorly that we are really out of choices.  We kept our promise to her, and did not start dialysis today, but we really MUST start tomorrow.  She is horribly frightened, and has already cried herself to sleep twice over.

At one point while I was holding her, and she was sobbing, I realized that her breath smelled like "old man" urine, stale and disgusting.  There are no words.
