Hopefully now that the kids are back in school, I can start doing more regular blogging again to keep everyone informed on us.  Thank you for all you who continue to pray for us and ask about how we are doing.

Brent has had to go through a few tests in the last month to clear him for the kidney transplant.  He had 24 tubes of blood drawn, a liver biopsy, a stress test and he had a colonoscopy last week,  The liver blood tests had been elevated since March and the liver biopsy showed that he has had very slight rejection of his liver.  The doctor said that he was really not too concerned.....he has had to increase his prednisone and he is getting his blood retested tomorrow to see if the blood work is back to normal.

The stress test was normal and amazingly, the colonoscopy looked great, too!  We are still praising God for healing Brent's ulcerative colitis. 

We have three friends who are currently gettiing tested to see if they are a match for donation.  We are still praying for a perfect match and we will keep you updated.  Until then, Brent is continuing to do dialysis five times a week. He usually feels very good and is still working full time.  I am thankful to have friends come in once a week to put the kids to bed and stay with Brent during dialysis so I can go out for a bit.  Charlotte has recently started praying several times a day asking for Daddy to not have to do dialysis anymore.
