June 4th
 Still no word on the new liver. We were on stand-by three weeks ago but nothing since then. I know all this waiting is getting on both of our nerves. We have an appointment with the transplant clinic next Tuesday. In December when we were there the PA said he thought we would be a post transplant patient by the June appointment. Doesn't look like we are going to be.
 I am concerned, and I do my best not to let Eldon know, that if we don't get this new liver by 2014 we may not get one. The new affordable health care act has a stipulation that if you are older than 45 you have to have a review of the medical treatment being offered to you. If that happens we just may not get  a liver because Eldon is 60 years old. Not old to us, but there are some who feel that at this age a person is not a contributor to society. Now, tell me our country hasn't taken a turn for the worse.
  We keep praying and hoping that soon something will happen and good times will be coming our  way. We continue to put our faith in our Savior and our Father in Heaven to help us and to sustain us on a daily basis. Thank you everyone for all your love and support.
