The second week of testing and meetings is finished. Each individual who met with Joe and I, Transplant Surgeon, Cardiologist, Pulmonary Specialist, etc. all said everything looked fine. The final meeting on Friday was with Joe's personal doctor. He said that he saw no potential problems or reasons why the approval at Wednesdays Transplant Board meeting shouldn't go through. If that holds true Joe should be on the transplant list by Thursday. Keep your fingers crossed. Best case senario for wait time would be 30 days, but it could be longer. Joe's MELD score according to the first blood draw after we arrived was 24, up from 22 before we left. His new MELD score as of this week was back to 22. Back to 24 would be great.
Hi everyone. Joe here. Mothers Day Weekend is here. We started off early Saturday Morning watching the sun rise over the Atlantic. Next was breakfast at a local eatery recommended by a lady who has been in Jacksonville beach for life. It was very good. From there it was off to Sawgrass to watch the The Players Championship golf event that was right here in town with some passes that we received from someone that we met who was not able to use them Saturday or Sunday. Watching those guys live was unbelievable. We will see what Sunday brings for a fun Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day to you moms. Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers. Go time is one step closer and we need them all. Talk to you all soon. Joe, Julie, and Janelle.
