Clinic Visit

Not much new - this week's clinic visit:

The incision is healing great
They added medication to slow Ron's racing heartbeat
Ron gained a couple of pounds (YAY!)
He'll continue to come in weekly for blood draws........but he doesn't have another clinic visit for 6 weeks.
They will see him less and less for the first year - then once a year for the rest of his life.
Ron is doing wonderfully!


Ron needs several procedures: hernia repair, cataract surgery, colonoscopy and dental work - all that has to wait until after his 6 month post transplant date.

Here's a photo of Ron and our pre-transplant coordinator, Cindy Quinn - yes, she's our favorite person.  She was always there for us - talked me down off the ledge several times while we were waiting for 'the call'.  We love you Cindy!


Ron spent the afternoon with Oliver
