Boston called last night about 6pm to let me know that they have pushed the transplant off until the 22nd of October. They also don't have a date for the first surgery but they think it will be around the 6/7/8/9 of October. They think that they won't have results from the new blood tests until September the 8th or 9th due to the upcoming holiday and they don't want to take Bridgette's kidneys out on the 10th since she is still making urine. They say that if they take them out and have no match then hemodialysis will be that much harder on her and her fluid intake as well as dietary intake will become much more strict. I have to look at it in a positive way, this way now she will be able to go to school for 1 month. She will go every M/W/F from 8:30-11:30, then we will drive to Albany for dialysis and on T/Th she will have full days in school, so in her mind this is better and she is happier now, and that's all I can ask for.
Enjoy the beautiful weather, Love Megan
