Update: Kelly is a little "light headed" and trying to eat more solid food. Nothing seems to taste good to her yet. Her DH is fixing her some baked chicken and boiled potatoes for supper, maybe she'll be able to eat.
& ...Patty is heading home today!!! She is amazing and so strong. They started the 5 hr trip earlier this afternoon. Her gut stopped working yesterday but took off and started working this morning. She's eating and has energy and her Creatinine level in her blood was over 12 before the transplant and it was at 1 yesterday. Normal for an adult woman is 0.5 to 1. Her "Kelly Kidney" (that's what she calls it) is working great.
Peace to all... |
