They gave Lydia a big dose of her diuretic. It helped her urine output for the first hour. We still need to go check on her for the next few hours after that. I was doing the potty dance for both Janene and Lydia. Both went after a lot of coaxing. Now if Lydia's can just continue on her own.
(I found out later that Maureen was singing a little song to help Janene while she was on the potty. It was called Tinkle Tinkle little star.)
I put a lot of transplant pictures on the right hand side of the blog under the title pictures then transplant, or just click here http://picasaweb.google.com/cleadbc/Transplant#.
London's mom also put some pictures on her blog http://liverforlulu.blogspot.com/.
Thank you all for your fasting and prayers. We are not out of woods yet though. The transplant doctor calls a liver transplant a journey. There are many roads and bends in that road to follow. We just have to take the curves as they come.
Love, Brian

Spenc and Lydia enjoying some brocolli (at least the taste of it for Lydia since she just sucks out the flavor and spits it out)
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We hope to see the "road" turn in the right direction for Lydia to recover.

Brian,
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but just cry as I read over the recent posts and looked at the pictures. My heart goes out to you, Janene, and Lydia. I surely hope Lydia starts to make a turn-around and beings to improve. I also hope Janene feels better today.
I feel so thankful you keep this blog so we can all feel a part of this to some degree.
Love,
Tami
my heart breaks to see lyds like that, hoped for the very fewest bumps possible. it's a helpless feeling as parents to have to stand back, wait & watch. hard to understand hard times like these, but i know lyds will keep moving forward...will be strong and knows nothing other than to fight. we love you all, our entire family is praying for her. xoxo lizzie
