More Good News

On Dad's last doctor visit they lowered his anti-rejection medication to a very low dose. He was doing so well that they were able to cut back dramatically on this drug. Since this particular medication is responsible for keeping his heart and body on good terms, the doctors wanted to make sure that this new does would not compromise Dad's health. So, last week they sent him to the lab to get some blood work done. The good news is is that his prograff level is just perfect and he will be able to stay at this very low dose. This is truly amazing. Some transplant recipients never get to this low of dose of anti-rejection medication. Dad is truly blessed!

Dad is also up and moving around a lot more than he had been in the last few months. He seems to be feeling tons better. Yesterday Mimi and Papa brought Taylor and made a special visit to come and see Abby and Victor. We all had a nice dinner and then they took all three kids for a trip to Toys R Us. A great time was had by all!
