Rich and Ken continue to do well. They are moving closer and closer to going home. They both drank liquids today and Rich ate a couple crackers. Eating will be the key to getting off IV and getting on the pills instead. Rich’s cathedar and epidural were removed today too! He’s making lots of revolutions around the nurse’s station w/his IV pole; looking great. We think that Rich will go home Sunday, and Ken may go home then, or a day later, as well. We are so thankful for all the prayers and for God’s goodness towards each of us. The kidney continues to work well. We are considering the idea of a “kidney transplant skit” by the Thorburns and Micks for Family Camp at Susque this year. Now that everyone is in much less pain, we see a lot of humor in the transplant procedure :-)
