Not Again

We just found out that K’s mom is back in the hospital, and to make a long story short, they’re concerned that her body might be rejecting her liver, and that her kidneys may be in trouble as well. She’s getting tests run today, and she’ll meet with her transplant surgeon on Tuesday, but this has got to be frustrating because she’s been so careful and disciplined about altering her lifestyle, and frightening because it could put her back where she was nine months ago. K and I were planning on being down in Richmond this weekend anyway, but we’re going to reshuffle our schedule a little bit so that we can spend some time at the hospital that we hoped to forget all about, instead of grow more familiar with. I’ve done some research (because I’m the type of person who is comforted by information) that helps to put it in perspective a little and give me some context, but this is still a scary thing for everyone.

So, to anyone reading this, whether I know you or not, if you could please say a prayer or send some good thoughts our way, that would be muchly appreciated.
