Good news again!

Kurt went to the hospital today to get his liver checked, the levels had come down enough that they are going to start the transplant (YEA)! So tomorrow he has to go and get a shot to protect his mouth from getting sores in it during the radiation, then on Sunday another shot for the same, and Monday a shot and they will do a minor procedure to put in a central line into his chest and take out the pic line in his arm. Then on Tuesday back to his second home for radiation for 6 days, and chemo for 2. He will rest on August 12th, and then on August 13th, he will get the marrow from a 21 year old from Europe. That's all we know about him, but he is as perfect as a match that they could of found, except for his age. Then the hard part, we will be apart for about 4-6 weeks, and then he will have to be watched at home for another month. We're getting very apprehensive about this, but very excited to get on with our lives and hope that they will be as normal as possible.
Thanks again for everything. We really appreciate the kindness shown by everyone. We know that Heavenly Father has blessed us in so many ways, and that I think he is trying to teach us patience, because we are not very patient people. We have become closer and our testimonies have grown too.
