Guest guest Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Jackie,  My prayers are with you and your family. Warm hugs...............Lyncia Thanks for this day and for my tomorrows .  Love, Lyncia   Subject: quick update To: livercirrhosissupport Date: Friday, April 23, 2010, 9:23 AM  Hello Everyone: We are still at the transplant center. Have been here since April 1st. My husband had his 2nd dialysis treatment today due to hepato-renal syndrome. When they put the line in a few days ago they had to sedate him. His ammonia was up that day to begin with and when they sedated him for the proceedure they couldn't wake him up. It took 2 days of lactulose enemas to get the ammonia out of his system. His liver dr was in this am and said that his meld score is now 34 and he will more than likely not leave the hospital without a new liver. We are hoping to get one pretty quick.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Jackie, I so wish I were closer so I could be there to help you out, if nothing else just to sit with you and offer a listening ear. I am praying that liver becomes available TODAY! Thank you so much for keeping us updated so we'll know how to pray. My heart is with you......

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 I'll be sending up my prayers tonight for your husband, as well, Jackie. (I know it's silly, but I pray only right before I go to bed -- hence the " tonight " ). --Diane > > > > > > > Hello Everyone: We are still at the transplant center. > Have been here since > > April 1st.
