Transplant Day!

Good afternoon everyone, Jennifer now has the Timcells in her!!!! She is not craving to play golf yet or do any public speaking but give her time.

She had a rough afternoon and night yesterday. The Doctors are having a tough time in figuring out the right amount of Dilaudid to give her to control the headaches. The pump did not work fast enough and they are giving her boost to help. Its taking 1 to 2 hours to get them under control. There is a fine line in giving her too much and controlling the pain.

Today the morning went well but she had a bad attack at 1pm. We have it under control and we feel that we know how much Dilaudid to give.

Jennifer is being so strong and we are proud of her.

Please keep the prayers coming. She really likes the getting the cards that you are sending from the hospital. She is covering the wall with them. Here’s the web site again: www.texaschildrenshospital.org/parents/patientgreeting/default.aspx. Her room number is 8039

I will keep you updated

Tim
