Zachary is doing pretty good :) He has lots of energy during the day , but by night time he is exhausted. Zachary had school yesterday and is doing awesome with his home schooling. A special ED teacher from Zachary’s school has been coming out M-F for the last couple of weeks, so Zachary can get caught up with all that he has missed. Thank you Cindy :)

Zachary still has high Blood pressures 137/96! They have been high since Thursday. Zachary had his lab drawn yesterday and overall all they look Awesome, But i can’t really go off of them because every time he has High BP’S his little heart pumps lots of blood to the kidney and his Kidney loves that extra blood and then we get a false low for his creatinine. The bad is his poor heart is just working way to hard! His heart rate has been 130-145.. Way to high!
I am still waiting for a call back for the next plan…

I can’t believe that Christmas is just right around the corner.. Zachary’s wish is for every child out there to have a present from Santa… so please in honor of Zachary’s wish if you have extra gifts it would mean a lot to Zachary if you would donate to Toys for Tots in Honor of him.

This has been a tough year for our Family, but we are thankful for many things. We still have a House , two vehicles and the love and support from all of are Family, Friends and all of Zachary’s followers.
Please pray for his Blood pressure to come down and for us to find him a HERO….
Don’t forget about Zachary’s kidney buddies

Hey Stacey, I called today and was transferred to leave a message – they changed their options recently so 5-8-1 doesn’t get you there anymore. Just thought you would want to know. We pray for Zachary and your family every night. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas. Sarah
