Help Zachary      Zach needs a new kidney!!!
Jan 27, 2012

Happy Friday!! I can already tell it’s going to be a GREAT day,

Zachary was up and down throughout the night…. Zachary went down for his endoscopy scope yesterday to look at his esophagus and tummy. They also did some biopsy’s when they are in there. We should get the biospy results back today …. Since he has been hooked up to 24hr suction.. NO MORE PUKING!!! Good and bad. Overall, GOD IS GREAT!! None of this seems real yet…… I feeling like i am dreaming.. Of course a VERY GOOD DREAM!!

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers!!!!!!!!!!!

Zach…I was just told about your story today, reading your story for the first time kowing that you are recuperating from your second kidney transplant yesterday. I am impressed beyond words with how you have handeled your life and your parents dedication to do everything it takes to insure your life. I am praying so hard at this very second for your smooth recuperation to return to YOUR LIFE as a son, brother, student, grandson, nephew (?) cousin (?). I find saying the OUR FATHER is a powerful source of inner strength. I will be following along on your journey. I was a kidney donor to my husband 13 1/2 years ago so I understand a very little bit about kidney transplants, although you are so young and vital to have to deal with all this so soon. You obviously have very strong parents and family who will be there right by your side as you get well. Love, prayers and strength for you. God bless you.
