Follow up cath

Kenize had a follow up cath on the 18th to see if the rejection is gone and the treatments are working we had to get up at 5 a.m to get to the hospital at 6 a.m. She was scheduled to go in at 7:30 a.m which was kind of nice because then she didn't have to fast all day.

She finally went back and an hour later they came and got me and Dr. Day talked to me and said her pressures were still high but lower than when she got admitted so that was pretty good news I was hoping for it to be cleared up but at least her pressures were going down and not up and the treatments were working.

After the cath she then had to go get an echo done and see her cardiologist. The echo looked much better this time :).

After her clinic we then had to go get her IV treatment which is like a 3 hr process. So basically she gets to watch a movie and color she gets pretty bored but she likes that she gets to order food. We were finally able to leave at 4:30 p.m. Yes it was a long day but Kenzie is doing good she needs one more IVIG treatment then starts her Rituximab which is a 6 hour treatment but at least that one she gets to do at home.

Later that night Her Coordinator called and said the biopsy results are in and her first cath was a 4v and this cath was a 3v. So that is also looking better.
