New Meld Score

This morning Joe gave blood for his new monthly MELD score. The new number is 25 which is great for moving up the list, possibly into the top five, and closer to transplant. With a 25 comes weekly blood tests instead of monthly. Hopefully next Wednesday we can hold that number, or better yet, get transplanted by then. As of now, all is good health wise. Joe is busy with work and feeling fine. Our niece Beth is here for almost a week to hang out with Janelle. Janelle is so exited to have her here. Lots of beach time and other outings planned. Thank you all for your continuous well wishes and prayers. We think of everyone so much and we can't wait to get home to see you all. We are counting the days until Friday the 18th when Jimmy arrives and our family will be complete for a couple of weeks. Love, Joe, Julie, and Janelle.

Do you guys ever head over on the Mathews Bridge/Arlington Expy over the water? We were looking at the layout of Jacksonville and just wondered.
