Hello friends, family, and followers. Not too much is changed with Robbi, she continues to have her regular days at home with the kids, getting her labs done. Her last MELD was 17, last week. We are still waiting to see what this weeks labs are. Since last week she has been started on Lasix and Spironolactone, due to edema (fluid) in her ankles and I think it helps a little w/ the ascites initially, too. Shes taking it a day at a time, she's a strong girl. She stays in close communication with her Transplant Co-Ordinator, who really does become the most important person to you when you are listed for transplant. It's very comforting knowing there are great doctors, nurses, surgeons, and all the others that work as a team for their patients.
