USC called today (our TGIF) :-)

October 6, 2001

hi gang,

i've spent the better part of this week trying very hard NOT to be irked

that USC was " supposed " to call last monday, to firm up jim's many LDLT

evaluation appts, but didn't. the good news (after all, it IS still friday,

at the time of this writing!) is that jim placed several voicemail messages,

and USC finally DID call back, this evening... so now the official word is

jim has numerous appts set for (get out your red pens and mark your

calendars!) monday, october 15th... beginning at 9am. jim feels a bit

nervous about the whole transplant idea, but for his sake, i'm soooo

relieved these appointments are finally, finally set.

USC is only a couple hours away, but jim is contemplating the 2 of us going

up there the night before, to spend the night; he positively loathes the

stress of highway gridlock, and wants to eliminate fighting all that

grueling monday morning LA traffic. he'll start out his morning at USC with

a ct-scan... then bloodwork... then we meet the transplant surgeon... then

his hepatologist (we don't know which one yet)... then a social worker...

then a financial coordinator (of course!). this will more or less conclude

what our insurance company has determined USC needs.

jim has secured his previous ct-scan, for comparison. i'm trying to decide

which cross-stitch and novel to bring up with me!

we'd appreciate your prayers of intervention on jim's behalf, that the

doctors will find no evidence of cancer (jim has serious risk) and deem him

suitable for transplantation, so they can move on to setting up appts for

our son jason to be evaluated.

with much love & thanks for your continued support,

maureen ( & jim)
