Great News

The results are back from the liver biopsy and it is not rejection or GVH. If everything goes smooth tonight, he will be released from the hospital tommorrow.

Some people have wondered what he was having done surgically at this stage in the game. Basically, they had already scheduled him for surgery to remove the pheresis line. This is one of the last steps before he is released to go back to South Carolina. In the mean time they decided ot do a bone marrow biospy. Then this past week his liver numbers were elevated and they wanted to be sure it wasn't rejection so they added the liver biopsy to the list of procedures he was already getting.

Now to the best news of all. If everything holds good this week, Isaac will be released to come back home to South Carolina. This could take place as early as this Thursday. For the next few months we will be splitting time between South Carolina and Cincinnati. A couple of weeks back home and then back up here. This will continue until he is able to be fully released to be at home. This is still a huge step for him. This will mark the first time that he and Melissa have been home in 15 months. We will update for certain as soon as we know more.
