Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Anita, Thank you for keeping us all posted. As with all the other members, my thoughts and prayers are with Shauna. , My son also has UC and chronic pancreatitis. Does your GI feel that there is a connection between the two? (We've been looking for research on this topic.) Ricky PSC 2003 Re: Shauna update Anita, Prayers will certainly be going up for Shauna, today and every other, until she is free and clear!

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 I'm not certain, but I don't think the family members with Shauna are checking the PSC board for messages to the family and Shauna. So if you write to Shauna or her family from here, they probably won't get it. Shauna's family is posting their messages through Caring Bridge and a PSC member (often Maureen or Barb) is copying and pasting the messages here. If anyone would like to send a message to Shauna, please go to http://www3.caringbridge.org/nc/shauna/guestbook.html Husband Fred, PSC, 3/04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 In God's name we pray. Hang in there Shauna! Love, Abbie Sunday, November 28, 2004 6:25 PM CST After a long day of waiting, Dr. and his colleague Dr. Marroquin informed us that the donor liver was bad, a " fatty liver. " Fatty livers rarely work after they are transplanted. Shauna's wait continues. The good thing is that she remained stable throughout the day. We also know from her CT scan yesterday that her neurological function is not impaired. Shauna is still there beneath her unconscious state. Given the tremendous ups and downs of the day, Shauna's unconsciousness is a blessing. We are very grateful that she did not have to endure the dissapointment of another thwarted transplant. This is the third bad liver that has come her way. We are still hoping and praying for the good one. We need to have strength and stamina for Shauna. She needs our hopefulness. Likewise the donor families need our gratitude for their offers to extend the life of our dear amazing Shauna, who continues to hold fast. Let's hope the next offer is imminent!!! Please continue with us on this challenging journey. Love to you all. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
