Difference

I thought I would do some comparison for the eye....









This is Big Bird, June 30, 2007. Jaundice, 187lbs of skin & bones. Sick....he wasn't even sure he wanted people over for his birthday.....








This is Big Bird, June 30, 2008 (well actually it was June 28.. but really you get the gist!) NORMAL color, his baby blues are back, no jaundice to be found! 218+lbs of healthy weight! (he is after all 6'10") His face is full and round, not that sunken sick look of a year ago.



So, yes, I would say, Big Bird you had one of the BEST birthdays you could have ever imagined!


And just for giggles.....


Here is the cake his friends got him for his birthday bash with his friends...
















***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.
