The Captain and The First Mate Need Your Prayers
I can’t believe I missed this until now. From Captain Ed:
First Mate Update: Bad News
I’m afraid today hasn’t been a good day for the First Mate and I. Today she started her third week of treatment for her polyoma virus infection, and her blood pressure and creatinine levels have gone up rather dramatically since last week. The doctors informed us today that the FM will need a new kidney and that we probably can’t expect too much more function from the current transplant. The average wait for a cadaver donor in this part of the country is four to five years, which means that she’ll need to go back on dialysis if the treatment can’t recover at least some part of the current transplant’s function.
….. Your prayers have been much appreciated, and we certainly can use more of them in the future.
Please pitch in accordingly.
