things are looking up!

dad is off dialysis, his fever is down, his blood pressure is stable, he's producing things he's supposed to produce...and for the first time in a week, they took the breathing tube out and he can talk!!!!!!!! wahoooooooooo i'm going up to see him tomorrow or sunday, and i can't wait. i'm so excited that he can talk now! i haven't talked to mom, so i'm not sure if she told him he had 2 transplants or not. we're not sure he has any idea that there were two. anyway. so excited. things are all going in the proper direction :O) dad's chances of living are exponentially greater than they were just 48 hours ago. thanks for your thoughts and prayers and emails, i know i couldn't have made it this far without them. you guys are the best. love you! r
