@syedlaeeqahmed I am sure trying to find the right combination of food for your father can be quite a hunt, and often frustrating, right? You're a good child doing all this work to help him. Your question didn't feel like the wrong way, please believe me on that! I feel like his medical team and you together have the best information to help him.
Sending good wishes for a successful research and keeping your father healthy. Reading that he is so restricted on fluid, that is a challenge in itself!

Thank you so much, Ginger — your kind words really touched me. Honestly, the journey has been emotionally draining at times. Our nephrologist is considered one of the top in the country, but he's not the best at really listening or explaining things in detail, which has been a bit frustrating.
That said, with your help and the research I've been doing, I've started feeling a lot more confident. Once we get the latest test results on Thursday, I’m planning to very slowly reintroduce small portions — like 1/4th servings — of different food items into my father's diet. He’s been through a lot, and I can’t help but feel heartbroken seeing him restricted like this.
And yes, you’re so right — managing all this while eating alone, locked in a room at midnight, trying not to let him see or smell the food… it’s one of the hardest parts. But I’m hopeful. Really thankful for your support and guidance — it means more than I can say. 🙏
