I just got back from visiting Karen. She is still in ICU, but they are going to move her to a regular room as soon as one becomes available. They have been able to reduce her fluid retention and her breathing has improved dramatically throughout the day. She is looking more and more like herself every time I go see her.
Lab results indicate that the new kidney is already working and the Doctor has indicated that she will probably not be doing any more dialysis! We had been told that it could take as long as a couple of weeks for the kidney to start working, so this is a pleasant surprise.
I will begin using this "blog" to keep you updated. That will allow you to check in whenever it is convenient for you.
Thanks again for all of your thoughts, prayers and support!
Rusty
