On Monday of this week Kaelyn was finally re-listed for her second liver transplant. Hooray! It is so funny to look at the difference in emotions from the first time she was listed to this second time. The first time was so stressful and frightening. This time I am so relieved and happy. Anxiety is always a part of waiting for the day to come, but it is less this time. I know what to expect and how to handle the recovery and medicines.
Wade and I have also decided to dual list her in California. This will hopefully decrease her wait time. Kaelyn and I are heading to Palo Alto, CA next Wednesday and will stay until Friday. We will meet with the whole transplant team there at Lucille Packard Children's Hospital and get her listed there also within the next week or so.
I do hope that her transplant happens close to home, but if an organ becomes available in Palo Alto than we are there in a heartbeat.
Well, love to all.
Angie
