Latest Update

Steve has started the last of his dentist appointments, his dentist has him on a cancellation list and he has been the first that they call to get him in as quick as possible.He has a mouth full of stitches right now. He was only in a lot of pain the first night, but doing good now (he has never been a complainer). Tom (his cousin Robins husband) is still in the process of being tested. He as done the blood work, his next step is seeing the psychiatrist and the the big testing (MRI, EKG etc...)
We have been busy planning Destiny's graduation so it has kept our mind off of his medical situation although he has expressed lately that he is getting tired(we really don't talk about it much). Physically his body is really starting to tell him to slow down.
Now with only one more appointment with the dentist left reality is setting in. We will send in his clearance from the dentist and he will become "active" on the transplant list.Although he isn't active he is still gaining time to be the next in line. Whether it be from a live donor or a deceased donor he will physically be ready for the beginning of "our" new life.
