Hi Yoyo,

My father is 87 years old with only one kidney. And the CT scan showed a stone in the kidney. Maybe that's why he wasn't drinking anything. I don't know. They have him rehydrated, and they are going to do dialysis, and then they will deal with the stone. If he had continued with his not eating and not drinking (he doesn't seem to get hungry anymore) the doctors say he would have been dead in one more day. Anyway, it's out of his control now.
