Default Re: We got the call for Holly!

I figured that I would give an update on Holly...as we are just past two months out from her transplant. Thing are going awesome for Holly and &quot;Alejandro&quot; (She named her kidney Alejandro [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] ). Holly's creatinine is 1.2 (sometimes 1.1), she's on a low dose of immunosuppressants (the dose it actually lower than when she was on them just for the heart transplant!), all of the other markers and levels that they are measuring are well within spec, too!

She's gone from 80.2KG (right after transplant) to 71.1KG now. Her dry weight when she started dialysis was 69.6 (I think?) so she's almost back to that weight, too.

We pray nightly for the person who donated the kidney.
