Update Day 31 Post Transplant!

Jared got out of the hospital on Wednesday at around 10 pm!! The doctors came in and talked with us before we left and they were so happy that Jared was feeling so much better and that his levels were still decreasing! As we left the hospital Jared and I were so excited! When we found out he had to go back in we were so scared, and so unsure of how long we would be their so the fact that it was only 5 days was amazing!  Yesterday, as we went to our first appointment back at the SCCA, as the nurse and doctor on Jared's transplant team walked in they were amazed with how much better Jared looked!  After they did all their talks and evaluated him, they concluded that as long as we have no more complications Jared will be discharged from the transplant team/floor next Friday the 21st! This also means that Jared will finally be getting his Hickman catheter and port out of his chest! He will be able to shower and move around normal! Jared is so very excited about this news! Since getting out of the hospital Jared has had much more energy then he has had in a couple months! He has started to get his appetite back and fast! He is eating much more and even has real cravings. Overall, Jared just seems and feels SO much better! Continue to pray that Jared does not have to face anymore complications and that it can be smooth sailing from here! I cannot believe that Jared is finally at this point of the transplant process. I am so thankful for his strength and courage through this entire process.
