Been to see my dh today. we had two short walks together, saw the docs. Peter played with Serena, made her giggle. then he read me all the clippings from newspapers that he found funny/interesting/bizarre. We had lunch together, watched some telly and chatted. Then came the bombshell

tests are being done. over the next weekor so many wil lbe done. THEY ARE LOOKING AT PUTTING HIM BACK ON THE HEART TRANSPLANT LIST!!! so happy, an end is in sight again.

Woohoo!! Great news! I was thinking of you this pm, Misdee, when I read in my local paper that an accident victim's organs had been donated for various transplants.

the echo has revealed that his heart has got a little bit smaller! before the LVAD was put in it was increasing in size and not working at all. now its gotton a little bit smaller and is doing some work itself. he isnt gonna recover from DCM, but at least his heart isnt under as much strain.

You must be overjoyed.

jessicaandbumpsmummy · 16/09/2005 21:08

you are one step closer to a healthy Peter - remember that.

It has been a long up-hill struggle, and there are still a few hills to climb, but it will be so worth it in the end!

Roll on first week of october xxx

Haven't read all of this thread, just your first post Misdee. Very pleased to hear that Peter seems better, you had a lovely day and some good news. Best of luck. x

Janh · 18/09/2005 20:54

Oh what good news, fantastic, misdee! (I work evenings from 5-10 now so missed this during the week)

Fingers and toes and everything else crossed, Peter's sounding so much better
