It's official, Mario is WALKING

Here he is with his Superman cape... I'm not sure where the cape came from but as Frazier smartly pointed out yesterday, no good superhero gives up his source.

We had clinic today...labs drawn this morning showed improvement from Friday. So, correcting the dose on his Prograf seemed to be the right thing. We're going to try regular MILK now too...this is HUGE considering the price of the formula he's been taking. Mario now weighs just over TWENTY FIVE pounds and has actually jumped above his normal growth curve (normally-consistently along the 50th percentile). He is also taking as many as 5-6 steps on his own, standing without holding onto something...he's getting to a big boy :)

August 15th

Well, Mario's liver function labs were SLIGHTLY elevated today. Turns out one of his immunosuppressent levels is continueing to trend low. So, we do a little dance, change the dose and go back for labs and clinic on Tuesday. Hopefully that does the trick. Think positive for him :) Yesterday was the 4 month anniversary of his liver transplant. Hugs to all
