A Couple More Photos


Here is an up close and personal photo of our new Adventures in Big Bird's Liver World mascot. We found him in the gift shop at the hospital. We laughed, bought him, and now you will be seeing lots more of him, as he will be our escort on all things Big Bird Liver World related ;-)


The pic to to right is Jesse, Big Bird & Big Bird's mascot. Jesse is our one constant at the Transplant Clinic. We were sad to hear of his recent heart problems, but are happy is as good as new!!!

Transplant Clinic




Big Bird had his monthly Transplant Clinic appointment on Friday. We had a good day actually, which is allot better than last month. Big Bird has a MELD score of 21. Dr. Espinoza was very nice. We got to see Jesse again, he is our one and only constant at the Transplant Center. He is one of the nicest guys. He was kind enough to take a picture with Big Bird & our new Big Bird Mascot. Melissa and I found him at the gift shop in the hospital. So he will be going on all our Transplant Adventures with us now ;-)

Mom had an emotional day, she is an O blood type, but she wouldn't be a match to Big Bird. That was hard for her to hear. She almost cried on the poor doctor. Silly mama.

OK Back to Traditions

We went back to a traditional layout for Big Bird. This will make it easier for everyone to read! ;-)

We did go to SA today for his monthly pre-transplant clinic appointment. All went fine. He still has a MELD of 21. Not sure where this places him on the list-but probably right around 3 still. I did take a few pictures today from our outings, so once I get them uploaded I will give y'all a slide show ;-)

New Design

Lemme know what you think of the new design....

I lost some of the links with the new layout, so....if ya know of something that is related to PSC or Big Bird and want it linked, leave me a comment and I will get it updated!

Look At Me!


Nothing new with Big Bird. I just laughed when I shot this pic. Aukee wanted Big Bird to just look at him. Every now and then Aukee really wants cuddle time ;-)
***BREAKING NEWS- Big Bird had his Liver Transplant on Wednesday December 12, 2007***

Adventures in Big Bird's Liver World is an account of the daily adventures, trials, frustrations and workings of living with PSC. My brother, aka Big Bird, was diagnosed with PSC in 2000, after battleing UC for many years. He was listed for a transplant in May 2007. We now await the infamous "call". In the mean time, this is where we vent, poise questions and ramble about life, doctor appointments, illness, good days & bad days.
