Seems like the meeting went well. It was what we expected. I think she was pretty impressed that we had our "care plan" pretty much already laid out and ready to explain to her. We didn't have the exact details (who will be helping us and exact dates), but were able to articulate what Mario's and Israel's needs would be and give numerous examples of people in our support network that would give varied degrees of support. We won't know anything definitive for a couple weeks. Now the doctors get together and review everything - 3 main topics. 1) Israel's health, readiness for the surgery and recovery, etc. 2) appropriateness of Israel's liver to "fit" Mario 3) our ability to meet the requirements of the support plan, ongoing care, etc.
We'll keep you posted! Meanwhile, focus turns to Mario's pending endoscopy on Friday. I have to take him for labs on Thursday, then we're overnight at the hospital Friday. I'll update from there if not before. Love, Phoebe
