Hi everyone, it has been a busy couple of days. I went to Albany on Wed with Bridge and my friend Keelin. I had to leave during dialysis because my sister was in the hospital having surgery on her knee again, so Keelin stayed with Bridge and then took her home. Before dialysis started though, one of the ports that she receives dialysis through was sticking somewhat. So what does this mean? They put a clot busting agent in (tpa) it and will check it today at dialysis, but if it is still meeting resistance, they might need to take out her central line and replace it on her left side. This can not be happening!! we'll see today. I then went to Boston with the 2 possible donors on Thursday, we left around 4:30 in the morning and were at Children's hospital first thing for lots of testing. We will not know the results for about a week. Even with those results, they told us that it can change even the day of surgery that the potential donor could not work, so it is a weird numb feeling being in limbo so to speak. Everyone asks how we are doing and I really can't explain it, never before have we felt so powerless. I want to thank everyone for all their love and support. The fundraiser coming together for October 11th sounds like it is going to be a blast, I just wish we could be there. I want to remind everyone that registration for this event is not through Stratton, it is through Megan and Robin at Stratton rentals(802-297-3078)

Take care, love Megan and Mark
