Today we went to go see Dr Tandon, Steve's primary care physician as we were not satisfied with his nephrologist. Dr. Tandon really explained in more detail what to expect "when the time comes". If he starts to get loopy, dehydrated, diarrhea, or simply not feeling good to call immediately and that's when they will proceded with dialysis. He did confirm that he could be a month it could be two months.
Good news as we were literally sitting in his office his cousin Robin told us that her husband is good to go as far as being a match for Steve. Tom has an appt. August 15 at Swedish Medical with the nephrologist there. Time is flying and we feel so blessed, grateful, fortunate, and loved to be able to have an opportunity to have a live donor. Reality is starting to sink in! Starting to get a little scared.
Thank you all for the support it really helps and makes it so much easier. We love and appreciate each and everyone of you.
Love The Goetz Family
