A New Week

Here we are on Monday two weeks removed from that 5 hour snowy, icy trip to Durham for surgery. After a good trip home Friday and a Saturday that was not too bad, Sunday was not so good. Aaron is having more pain than he's had the entire time so he "finally" took a pain pill last night. Yes, he's quite hardheaded when it comes to taking medicine unless he just has to do it. He still has quite a bit of discomfort this morning and no, hasn't taken another pill. To be honest, with all the pills he's taking following transplant, I can't blame him. His pill regiment is like an extra snack morning and night. Hopefully he won't have too many months with this many pills but we know that some will be with him a lifetime. Thank the Lord research has discovered how the body rejects foreign organs and how to stop that rejection. We encourage all transplant patients to continue taking your medicine as prescribed after hearing that so many stop taking it & lose the organs after about ten years. You are worth the effort and have invested alot in this adventure. Thank you to all for the prayers, cards, visits & gifts. A special thanks to Kenny Mull who dropped by yesterday for a short visit and to Donna Wiles who has checked up on us so many times. We love you both. Today is filled with laundry & cleaning before returning to Durham. Pray for NO SNOW!!
Until later.....
Barbara
