Soldering along

 

Things have finally calmed down a little. Maddy's friend, Zach, the guy who pretty much saved her, came to visit last night. Maddy sent me home to get some sleep and he stayed to keep her company through the itchy fiery skin episode. Maddy said the hydrocortisone she got around midnight finally gave her some relief and she was able to get some sleep last night. I got back this morning early so I could be sure and talk to the doctor. Dr. Rolf came by around 9 and was his usual self. He is worried about her and wants her back on the transplant list ASAP! He's a little worried about her kidneys and prograf levels. He is also worried about her not breathing, obviously, and said he wants to find out what happened. At the very least he said he's going to keep her here a few days to keep an eye on her. Hopefully while she is here they will be able to take care of a few of those hoops we have to jump through to get her on the list.

The morning was uneventful. Maddy is finally over all the itchy stuff and able to rest so I let her sleep in as long as I could. I finally started getting her up around 1PM so she could eat. Of course everything can't work in her favor, now that the skin episode is over she gets something else to deal with. She is all shaky. She said she feels like she is on one of those vibratey beds. She was only able to get down a protien shake at the moment but hopefully she will feel better ans get her apatite back soon.

Other than that I think she is just going to chill. They don't have to do any crazy tests or treatments at this point so it's best to rest while she can. I won't update much unless something interesting happens. I'll probably get back to work for at least a few hours tomorrow. Thanks for all the support!
