Post Transplant Update #4: A Setback

Thank you to everyone for your kind inquiries regarding Dan. As to be expected after something as serious as a liver transplant, the last week has been filled with ups and downs for Dan. On Tuesday afternoon, Dan suffered a seizure and had to be readmitted to the ICU. It is our understanding that while not common, it is not unheard for a liver transplant recipient to experience a seizure. Doctors have been evaluating Dan and will be adjusting his anti-rejection medication as necessary and possibly putting him on anti-seizure medication. Please keep Dan and Lorie in your prayers through this extremely challenging stage of recovery.

Also, please be on the look out for further information about Dan's post transplant care calendar. The link to this calendar will be posted to the blog once Dan is given notice that he'll be discharged from the hospital. It will be used to sign up for bringing meals to the family, etc.

Thank you to everyone for your love and support for Dan!
