the final hours are the longest

we have been testing all day @ the hospital today. getting the low down for the surgery day from her transplant dr. now.

rejection medication starts from the surgery immediately then stays with her for the rest of her life.

he explains that bleeding, thromosis of the vessels, develop infections, & ultimately rejection. this is the data on the complications that can occur.

knowing & learning her medication ritual is one of the most important factors for a successful transplant.

we were followed around by Dez filming us throughought the process. thanks Dez! we are very excited that they let us film.

wow, her Dr. just told us that my mom has to leave because she is catching a cold cause she just got in from Mexico! fuk!!!!!

doc says how do we know it could not be swine flu? even if it isn't, there is a really bad chance that the transplant could be cancilled if either of us were to get sick.

In fact, if we go through with the surgery & we get sick from her, I can get extremely sick & marly can even die!

I'll have to send Ma home on the train now. wow!

2be continued!!!
