Two months. We’ve been in the house, together, for two months. We are okay. We each have our days. Most of them are good. Most of the time we are thankful for our health and this time together. Originally, I thought I would be the one to go out to the stores and to get the things we needed. I… Read more »
So, here in the Feger house we have been finding peace. Why haven’t I updated the blog? It hasn’t been on my mind. Instead, I’ve been planning Transplantiversary celebrations, getting the kids back to school, preparing for the holidays, working around Jamey’s travel schedule — you know, NORMAL THINGS. Can we celebrate a little?? Woo Hoo!!!! Let’s go back to… Read more »

This was a good hour. Lots of things removed. He’s down to one IV and one other access point. His right arm is needle free! He was pulling tape off of old IV and injection or blood draw sites. He lost his pain pump and is now just taking oral meds. Since he is down to only one IV he… Read more »
He got a stretch of 4 hours of sleep! Woo Hoo! The nurse did come in but he slept through it. His hands are feeling about the same as yesterday, pins and needles. But, with that sensation we notice he is able to grab/hold things. Laurie caught me crying in the waiting room earlier in the evening. I was just… Read more »
