Brief update

I'm in Richmond VA now at the MCV Critical Care hospital. I took a late flight in Thursday night and left James for the first time. He's with his daddy though!
My dad was transferred here to have immediate surgery to remove the transplanted kidney's. But after getting here they've changed plans (more than once) and they are trying to wait until he's stronger before attempting surgery. His body is full of infection- in his blood, urinary tract, lungs, heart, and kidneys. The kidney's have to come out, but the surgery is so intense and risky that his chances of coming through if they did surgery now would be slim. Continue to pray for him. I am returning to NY tomorrow and will make plans to come back to Richmond as I can. I hate seeing my dad like this, he's really miserable and doesn't want to be where he is. No one would. I'm glad he's in Richmond though, as opposed to Lynchburg General.
