Excellent News,..

Today was one very long day, but what a outcome!

Jen and Glenn went through surgery with flying colors, both of them are hurting as you may expect, but already on the road to recovery. Jen seemed groggy for a long time, but by 6:30 she was eating Jello, drinking clear broth, and getting some wise cracks in.

The Kidney (yup that's with a capital K) immediately started producing urine, Glenn blood pressure went from EXTREMELY HIGH this morning to 127 over 73, which is excellent, and his color was pink and healthy. Creatinine level was already working it's way down. Only side effect that Glenn noticed so far,was this over powering urge to go shoe shopping but otherwise he thought he was fine.

Hospital again is, Inova Fairfax, 3300 Gallows Road, Falls Church VA,22042
Jen is due home Friday, room number is 785 and #703-776-2785
Glenn is due home on Saturday, room number is 784 and #703-776-4784 BUT DON'T SEND HIM FLOWERS, because of his immune system, flowers can't be accepted.

They are down the hall from each other, so Jen thought for her first stroll this evening, she'd pop her head into her dad's room and say hey.

I'm going to bed now, just wanted to give update. Don't hesitate to call them, know they'll want to hear from you.

Jen, I'm so blessed to have you as my daughter, and if I haven't mentioned it, you are marrying a very good man. Steve, thank you for being there, not sure how I would have made it through today without you.
