Hi everybody, Bridge had a good day in dialysis, lab values are still really off, so she is getting added juice so to speak to her dialysis treatment. Her dietary restrictions were somewhat lifted today, meaning she can have more potassium and sodium in her diet, will do a recheck of labs on Wes. Boston called today and told me that if anyone is interested in having there blood drawn to see if the are a match for the first part of testing, I would need to get information like, names, demographics and ss# only because they have run into people from all over the country who occasionally have the same name and birthdate. I was told after I collected the information and they entered it, a package would be sent I think to the individuals home . They are asking for people interested in seeing if they are a doner to take this package and go have labs drawn on the 27th of this month, they then would be overnighted free of charge by Fed X to Boston. Our appointment is the 28th for Boston. At this time they will check Mark and I to see if we can be donors and review the results of the other lab tests. As most of you know Bridge unfortuantely will need probably 2-3 transplants in her life time. We do not know if either Mark or I wil be a match, so we are trying to broadend the field as wide as possible.
Thanks again for all the support!!!
Love Megan and Mark

I'm so glad to hear that her dietary restrictions have been altered! And of course that he had a good day todaybusy today! I've been slammin busy today so I appologize for not calling - although I did just leave you a vm on your cell around 10 minutes ago... and will check in with mark later to see how he's doing. He's at the gym right now - which is a very good thing! Anyway, I'm glad to hear you had a good time with Amy at the lake and I'm sorry that all the conversations / confusion crossed but I'm planning (if it works out) to visit next week. We'll regroup on this with your sched. I'm thinking of you and so is my mom. You're in our thoughts and prayers!
