Life goes on

Life continues to go on for us as we wait on the Lord to provide that precious but elusive liver transplant.

Dan has had a number of weeks now where his legs are no longer forming blisters and leaking. He saw the wound nurse this week and she said his legs are "healed". Most of the sores are gone and the skin looks much better. Dan says the swelling is greatly reduced in his legs also. Thank you Lord!

Other complications continue, the most annoying right now is the muscle tremors and cramps, particularly at night. Reducing the water pills have not helped and we fear this may be one of those things Dan will have to live with until he gets a new liver. Dan is pretty tired most of the time due to very little sleep, except for falling asleep uncontrolably during the day (due to the high ammonia level). Dan is even having a hard time talking on the phone due to muscle tremors in his hands and arms, so I will be sending him his cell phone headset and Bluetooth. Please pray that the tremors and cramps will ease up and allow him to sleep a little at night.

Dan is enjoying visiting with Pat today, Pat attended a conference on the mainland and he was able to stop over in Phoenix to visit Dan. Pat is wanting to watch the Lakers game with Dan's Dad, Dan (a Celtics fan) is not too excited to have 2 Laker fans in the house!

Soaring and waiting,
Debbie and Dan
