The Next Stage of the Journey

With all of us together once again (hopefully for a VERY long time), we have entered the next stage in our journey - post-transplant. Sarah will be visiting Children's twice a week for clinics for the next month or two. Please keep those visits and Patty's back-and-forth driving for those appointments in your prayers. 

We have a new regimens of meds as well. Please agree with us that Sarah will take those with no issues. It is also crucial she continues to gain weight. Currently, the NG tube is supplementing Patty's breastfeeding with additional breastmilk. If all goes as planned, we won't have to go back on TPN at any point. But for the time being, the broviac line is still hooked into Sarah's chest so we need to pray against any infection. It is likely they will take it out in a month if everything goes as planned.

Thanks for continuing to stand with us for divine health for Sarah and her new liver. Rejection can happen any time up to a YEAR or more after transplant so we need to be vigilant.
