At 10:35 PM last night we received a phone call from the IMC transplant team. They thought they had a liver for us but they wouldn't know until the morning. Great! how I am suppose to go back to sleep. Finally, around 1AM I was able to get back to sleep. The phone rings at 4:23AM, a family member called, concerned, about what was happening. That it I was up.
I folded clothes, figured out the check book and started preparing mentally to travel down this road. We got ready for church and at 8:30AM we were walking out the door to head to church when the phone rang. PLANS CHANGED! we were heading to the hospital. They wanted us at the hospital and if the liver was a good one the doctor wanted Eldon at the hospital and waiting.
We hurried, changed our clothing and headed out the door. We arrived at the hospital a little after 9AM. We sat, talked and waited. Finally around 11AM, the coordinator called and said that the liver was not a good one, it was too fatty, that would not be a good one for Eldon.
So we came home. not really too disappointed. Eldon said he felt like this was not a go. Maybe the third time will be the charmer. Ourtime is coming. I use to think it won't happen until April or May but now I am thinking more like March. We will see.
I know the Lord is with us and watches out over us. I feel His presence along this journey and I know He's watching out over Eldon very closely.
