Zachary before Rejection

Zachary  had his first Kidney Transplant when he was just 11 months old, Which his Daddy gave him that second chance at life…. Than our lives changed again….Zachary went into Antibody , Acute and Chronic rejection September 30, 2009, He developed very high class 2 Antibodies . Zachary’s kidney is to damaged to repair, and with his high Antibodies it is going to be very difficult to find him a new Kidney. If you would like to be Zachary’s HERO and get tested to see if you are a match…PLEASE CALL… (612) 625-2186 This is the donor line. Zachary is A+ If you are A+ A- O+ O- and are in good health, under age 60 with good Blood pressures and no Diabetes you could be Zachary’s HERO!!!! Let them Know it is for Zachary Elsenpeter …..

Zachary had his labs drawn on Monday ….. I was praying for better results than they were… His creatinine , Bun, Phors  Well, pretty much everything was a lot higher….. Zachary’s Blood pressures are also back up to 135/90 !! ….Not liking !  Overall he is very tired and night time he likes to keep us up half the night puking……. I feel so bad for him….

Monday is the big day… They will drawn Zachary and his potential donor and Fed-x their blood to Chicago…Hopefully by the end of next week we will know if Zachary has a HERO !! Either way Christine is a HERO in our eyes… anyone that is willing to give up an Organ to save a life is a HERO !!

Please also pray for our kidney buddies….

Vicica is fighting for her life living on Dialysis. With over 100 people that are willing to be Zachary’s HERO. I am amazed! Vivica and her family would be grateful if theses 100 people that didn’t match Zachary would get tested to see if they could be her HERO. That would be the greatest gift ever!!

Hello Stacey,
Luke take most of his calories by mouth during the day. I just bolus him with water during the day. Overnight he has mostly water with one can of Peptamen Jr. for extra calories. But, I think that is about to change. I know what you mean about the meds. I have not shaved Luke because they said the hair can grow back worse. I was looking at pre-rejection pictures too and am amazed at how much hair he has. I always say I have a three year old who looks like he has gone through puberty. I am sorry Zachary had a rough night. I am praying he has a better day and for next Monday. Take care and know we love you from AZ!
