It's been some time since I have posted any information. Eldon turned 60 on October 1st and we made it a weekend of celebrating. On Friday we went fishing and caught our limit in one hour. The lady and her husband down the shoreline from us, says "What's up with you people". They were struggling to catch fish and we just pulled them out left and right. So funny, we shared with her our Salmon Peach power bait, within 5 minutes this woman was pulling out a fish. On Saturday we went to the Bingham Copper Mine. It was a place that Eldon had never gone before. Sunday we had a party in our front yard and then on Monday, Eldon's actual birthday we had a taco dinner and then off to the new boys store, Scheels. At this point we are waiting to hear if we have been given our additional 3 points. We should be scheduled soon for another CT scan of the chest and abdomen. On Monday we will be at the hospital early in the AM for blood tests. I will work to upload some pictures of our weekend.

October

     It's October and we have had a good end of summer. No problems with Eldon's health and we have been able to do some fun things. Eldon's birthday is October 1st so we made it a weekend of celebrating. We went fishing, Bingham Copper Mine, a Sunday afternoon party in our front yard and then on Monday we went to the new boys store, Scheels.
     We had blood work drawn on Monday October 8th. It came back a little out of whack. His White Blood Cells and his Platelett count are very low. I talked with Lori at the Transplant Team and she said we are beginning to see the right side of hisliver start to fail. We have a CT scan on Friday the 12th at 7AM. I am hoping that it will be okay. Then in November, on the 12th, we have an Endoscopy to see how the Varices are doing.
     I want to enjoy the end of the year. The doctors are thinking we will be looking at a Spring Transplant so I am sure after the first of the year things will start to progress even faster. I just want Eldon to get this done and be better so we can go on living our lives and serving our God and others.
