Sorry for no post, we've been really busy trying to get Mario's new medication schedule worked out over the weekend and working hard to get him to take fluids. He is still not meeting the target of 30 ounces a day, but we were close yesterday. We saw the pediatrician today and Mario had a temp - 100.7 so I've checked in with the team. He had slightly elevated liver labs Sat morning so they will check tmrw morning and if still elevated they'll do a biopsy to rule out rejection. Keep your postive thoughts headed Mario's way. If he has rejection, we'll end up back in the hospital for a 5 day round of steriods. I have a cold so I'm hoping he is just dealing with the same. A GI we talked to on Sat said that the type of white blood cells he shows elevated would be more consistent with a virus. Strange to hope he has a virus, but that's what we're doing. I'll update tmrw night, hopefully with good news that his labs came back in line and no biopsy necessary.
