I'm sure by now you've all heard the news.... My Babycakes' kidneys (yes BOTH) have failed! Actually, have been failing for some time....who knew? Truly a surprise to everyone.
I guess in hindsight, they were a few small signs...
Boy how our world has changed.
So, after the hospital stay and stabilization, Ben has started outpatient Dialasys tues, thurs and sat at 6:30 am. Hopefully not for long because the time sucks, but he doesnt seem to mind as much as i do...
We've been very blessed thus far..besides finding out before something really horrible like a deadly stroke happened, quickly finding amazing doctors who would quickly see us, being treated in a bloodless program, being pushed to the TOP of the four month waiting list to meet with the transplant team, having his two brothers tested within two weeks of diagnosis, we've discovered he has A UNIVERSAL RECEIVERS BLOOD TYPE which makes his body a more acceptable recipient. We've also discovered how many wonderful people we are very fortunate to have in our lives.
Thanks everyone for all of your calls, cards, visits and encouragement.
We are truly blessed.
