Update today

A lot has happened - needless to say after all the hoopla we received a call from RMCC (the original transplant team) on Friday telling us they've reconsidered and will do the transplant which is good b/c I received an email from my insurance saying they wouldn't cover the other facility so we'd have to go to Seattle or Houston.

We have to have a series of tests done - stress tests on organs, EKG, spinal tap, and Mike is doing a round of Rituxin (chemo drug) on Mondays. The team said if they get the donor and everything is a go then we go in about 4 weeks. We still have to go through the caregivers class and a bunch of other stuff but as of right now it's a go.

Bri is going back to a support group for kids who have a terminally ill parent. She starts next month. She has started back to school - 8th grade. Anyway, thanks for the prayers and thoughts and I will keep you all updated.
