Hillary,

The best of luck to you and Holly! We'll be anxious to hear how everything goes, so please do keep us updated. Wish we could get over to Stanford to see you guys, but Tara starts school tomorrow, so it will be a hectic week.

We'll be saying our prayers for you guys.

Jill

Thinking that Jack and I were there three months ago, meeting you and your fantstic family and friends, and meeting Connie, was a very special point in my life. We are not alone.
Thanks for all you've done for mm awareness and support of others.

Holly's Angiogram

Well she had it done today at around 1:30 and I spoke with the radiologist afterwards and he informed me that Holly's Left side looks great, flowing nicely and open. Her right side not as well, its more narrow through the graft area although its still getting blood flow and oxygen to that side.

I'm not sure what this will mean, I haven't seen Dr. Steinberg yet, I'm hoping to see him while she is in recovery, if not then we will put a call into him to find out more about what is going on.

She also had a reaction coming out of the angiogram, she was not very happy about it at all and showed that pretty well according to the nurses. They did give her something to help with that, besides all of that, she is in and out of sleep, and hopefully will be leaving around 9:30 tonight, if she cooperates with drinking and all that....so far no such luck.

Take care everyone, I am headed back upstairs to go sit with her more.

Hillary

Hillary~
Thanks for the recent post.
Hope things are settleing down for Holly now.
Glad that the one side is doing well.
As always, you can call us whenever you'd like.
My thoughts are with you and so are Jacks.
