The transplant team (without Dr. Montgomery who is the head of transplant and the surgeon who did the transplant) came by and told us he (Dr. M) is coming by soon but has indicated he may choose NOT to operate given Karen's surgical history, but instead may place a drain to try to remove the hematoma. He will decide after he sees Karen.
Fortunately Karen is resting pretty comfortably with the help of pain and nausea meds. And her vital signs and blood level has responded well to the transfusions. This is good if they do decide to do surgery.
I will post again after a decision is made about surgery.
