Hello it is me again, the patient. Well today has been a very relaxing day, I did not have to go to the clinic at all, and I had two visitors that came up and took us out for lunch. It is nice to have the day off, no Doctors or Nurses poking around. Yeah I like my days off. Well tommorow I have labs first thing in the morning, and then the rest of the day is free. Then Monday morning I see all the Liver People, and I am going to talk to them about when I get to head home. I will hopefully get to leave this coming Thursday or Friday, that will be my 21 days, and that is normally when they set you free. Things have been going well so far. I do have a few bruises that they are watching, and the tummy gets sore, but other wise things are moving in the right direction. I will hopefully get these staples out soon too. It makes it very hard to have good posture when you have 56 staples up and down the sides and middle of the tummy, so then that makes the little back sore and the hips. So I am hopeful that maybe Monday or Wednesday they will take them out. The tummy is still kind of large, but I think it has gone down just a little, which is good. They did an x-ray to see if there was any bleeding and there was nothing wrong in the x-ray, so they said to just keep and eye on it. I finally got new photos up, but as you can tell, they are not my best looking ones. Thanks for all the prayers. Love to all who read this. Jmee These are the day after Transplant.
