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.

***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.

I like the slide show! I love the big bird in the picture. That's a great idea!! I'm glad the appointment went well!!
Tiffany,
Love the "newer" layout and the pictures were great! I know the waiting is hard, but tell mom and The Bird to hang in there. It's easy to see the love you all share and the laughter.....both WILL carry you through the tough times.
