Well we have already gotten up and walked around the entire unit this morning with another lap or two coming later this afternoon. Before too long, we will be timing her in the 4.40 and depending on her speed, she may be receiving recruiting offers from some of the major schools!
We found out this morning that her first biopsy is scheduled for tomorrow morning. We should find out later today whether or nor she will be the first case, if so, she will go down early in the morning, or the second case. Please pray that she scores a zero, which would indicate no rejection or at the very least, a "1A" or "1B," which would indicate "mild rejection."
We also found out that her second swallow-study test is scheduled for Friday afternoon. She has been practicing her swallowing and vocalizing techniques so that she can pass her test. If she passes her test, she will finally be allowed to eat and drink. She has been adding to her food list everyday. (The list now includes french fries!)
Overall, the doctors, especially the surgeon, can't get over how well she looks. Last evening, she laughed with Daddy as they watched "The Andy Griffith Show" and she had a smile on her face most of the evening while sitting in the bed playing on the computer.
We continue to be amazed at the progress she has made and how much better she seems to feel. Not once since transplant has she felt nauseated, and the fact that she wants to eat, well, its just incredible.
