Update on Daughter

Recommended Posts

To those of you that I cruised with last summer and those of you that know about my daughter.On Feb. 9th I received a call that my niece in Beaumont,Texas fell at her home and was brain dead and was about to be removed from life support.After a lot of phone calls and prayers her family

donated her liver to my daughter. They were very close in age and their blood

type was an exact match. Well after two tramactic days of going back and forth with Baylor Liver Inst. we found out the liver was to fatty and was of no use to anyone, then we found out someone got the liver that only had 24 hours to live. Horrible communication break down on Baylors behalf but we know it just was'nt in God's plan at this time.

Thanks for all the prayers on behalf of Pam.Kat I got your birthday wish.Just have'nt had time to respond. My niece passed away on Monday which was my birthday and her funeral was in West Texas so we have had a very busy week.Thanks again to everyone.

Oh Sally Jo! I am so sorry to hear about your niece and the mistakes made with the families generous donation. Girl I am sending lots of prayers and hugs your way. I still have your DD on our prayer chain---we will continue to pray for her and your family, as you also now recover from your nieces untimely death.

My heart goes out to you!!!

Kat

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
