I called KU today and talked with our coordinator to ask if Steve should get an H1N1 vaccination or not. Wendy said we should talk with our kidney doctor about this. She said he would not be able to get if for a while after his transplant at least 90 days.
Steve's status on the list has not changed much. We still send a blood sample at the beginning of each month for tissue matching. He has not come up in the top ten yet and Wendy when he does she will call us.
We are going to have to work out another schedule with dialysis in about a month so he can harvest. We are recruiting my mom, Steve's dad, maybe a brother-in-law and an aunt to hopefully do this. He wants me to put him on before I go to work around 5:30a.m. and have someone else take him off. Technically he is not suppose to do this without someone with him. Of course Blair will be her but, sleeping. I'm not real comfortable about this but we will see how it goes.
Emily has had a dream twice that he got the call that he is getting a kidney, so it must be coming. We need prayers for a kidney.
Help us keep up our faith. Love the Schmitz's
