And So They Wait...

Michelle had her 3 month check-in with the transplant clinic this afternoon. The summary of the appointment is...continue to wait. As mentioned before, organ transplants are down this year. The live donor transplant remains an option for the future, but the doctors feel the best choice right now is to continue to hold out for that whole liver.

Michelle's liver function continues to decline. A major blood vessel at the liver is working less efficiently than previously, and her spleen continues to have reduced blood flow resulting in subsequent pain.

Prayers are needed for this family to have the physical and emotional strength to get through this long wait.

Thank you to all who continue to keep Michelle and her family in your thoughts. The Ways are so grateful to you all for keeping them in your hearts.

Tracey
