A New Address

Well we finally sprung him! The docs released Dad to the Guesthouse today. He is currently snoozing in a recliner. He will be in Cleveland at least until Tuesday. The doctors are watching his blood tests results and tweaking his meds so they requested he stay close by until his follow-up appointment with his liver surgeon on Tuesday afternoon.

It has only been two weeks since surgery - so hard to believe that he is out of the hospital! Now he needs to work on getting his

strength back. He will have to go for blood work Fri., Sat, Mon, and Tues. That will involve some walking which should help him get stronger.

We believe God continues to place people in our path to help us. We met a gentleman last night who is 9 months post transplant and he explained the difficulties he had adjusting to the meds. It was a comfort to hear that what Dad is experiencing is pretty normal. He is on prednisone for about another week. We blame it for his grumpiness. He still isn't joking around so that tells you about his mood.

This is the Guesthouse. It is directly across the street from the Main Hospital Entrance. The second floor is dedicated to transplant patients and their families. We have met several other families here and enjoy talking with them.
