Results

The results from Parkers biopsy have come back....drum roll...his heart has no rejection yeaaa!!!! This is very good news, it means that his meds are working and his body is responding good to his new heart. Hooray. He is now on a wheign of one of his anti rejection drugs and in two months won't be quite so immunocomprimised. I don't think that I need to say anymore, that is a good enough post on its own.

6 month heart biopsy

Well on Tuesday we started driving to Edmonton for Parkers heart biopsy. We met a really good friend and were able to go out for dinner Tueday night. On Wednesday we had appointments all day and get ready for the next day. Thursday we got up early and came to the hospital. He was second case so he got in at about 10:30. Everything went really well, when the doctors got into his heart they measured a part that was narrowing where the donar heart was connected to his heart. So they ballooned the narrowing and he needs to stay over night to be monitored. So we'll know tomarrow what the results are from the biopsy. It was really good to come back to Edmonton to see so many people that helped our family and that were such dear friends to us.
