The last couple of days Zachary has been feeling pretty sick … His ferral bag that drains his stomach has been a nasty and green.. NOT good. That means that he is backed up again and the stuff from his intestines are coming back up into the stomach.

The good .. Is that his blood pressures are coming back down 125/85 !! That is very good for him.  Zachary also had his labs drawn and his creatinine also has come down a little . Which is awesome !! I still BELIEVE in the power of pray.

Zachary also has 2 potential matches !!! Yippeeee!! Now it is round 2 !!  They will drawn the 2 potentials and Zachary and send it to Chicago . It takes 2 weeks from the time they recieve there blood. I am trying not to get to excited because this has happened in the past and Zachary

Thank you HopeKids

Thank you HopeKids

I am going to be POSITIVE and keep my hopes up… Please keep Zachary in your prayers.

Thank you,

Zachary had an awesome day.. He had lots of energy, Played the Wii and was very excited about school today :)  I wish everyday was like today. I  got to watch my little Zachary full of energy , Laughing and jumping !!… He even ran up and down the Stairs playing games. I have not seen this side of Zachary in about 5 months.. I am not sure why he had  such a great day, But I pray that he has more and more like today.

Zachary is still having rough nights .. Up and down all nigh long… His blood pressures are still high with some low but consistently pretty high 140/90..

On Wednesday , Zachary will have his labs drawn .. We pray that they are stable and that he can hold his own until we find him another Kidney.. So far hundreds have called in and there is no match

Zachary had his labs drawn Yesterday and everything is stable… I can breathe. Every time he has his labs drawn I hold my breathe until I get the results. He had more energy Yesterday and was playing his Wii and even walked up and down the stairs 3 times !! WOW !

But last night was another long night.. Up and down all night long.. In our bed, back in his …He also had a bad dream and was Hallucinating again. He has not Hallucinated in about a month so that was pretty scary for him last night. He kept seeing black bugs flying in his room. So back in our bed, and than he finally fell asleep by 5:30am.. Wow , that was a long night.

Tonight we have a IEP meeting with Zachary’s teacher’s .. I am a little nervous because he has missed so much school . He went to school for 2 weeks and than he went into rejection and was in the hospital for all of October into November and than he got Phnemonia in December Than he was back in the hospital in Janurary . He does have a wonderful teacher Cindy that comes to our house to home school him.

I am a Mother on a Mission.. I will do everything in my power to get the word out about Organ Donation. Our Friend Bill Just had a kidney Transplants a couple of weeks a go and he had a living Donor that left the hospital 24 hours later. HOW AMAZING IS THAT!! In just 24 hours after saving a life , He was back on his feet and was home with his family.

Knowing you could save a life is got to be the most wonderful feeling. I am not a match for Zachary ,And as a Mother all you want to do is make your child better. I can’t !  So it is up to ALL of you out there to help me find him a HERO!  So he can live life again, and not feel sick and go back to school.

There is this wonderful friend of mine that also has a little boy that had a kidney Transplant that started a FaceBook page called (Save Zachary) WOW ! In less than 2 days over 600 fans !! That is AMAZING ! I just pray that those fans if they are the right blood type call in or pass his page on to others.

Their have been 100s tested and so far no match….

Now about Zachary…

The last couple of nights Zachary has been very restless.. No sleep for anybody.. Finally at 6pm last night he crashed. But he still got up every hour on the hour throughout the night. I talked to his Dr and all they can say is its part of the kidney failure. Everything is part of the kidney failure. Him not sleeping. Feeling sick all the time ,all his med

Zachary 1 day of school, 2 weeks before rejection.. He has not been back since.
