Erin had surgery yesterday. Drs did a bronchoscopy to check out her new lungs & biopsy them. He said they looked great, and we are just waiting on word from the biopsy to be sure no signs of rejection, but we are already praising God in advance for all of the wonderful things he has done & will do! She also had her Gtube & port removed; she was sorry to see them go because they were wonderful while she had them. We sooooo did not want to get either one, but when we did, they were both very useful and appreciated. She has a Ph probe in now to measure acid reflux, and that will come out tonight. Mike & Casey drove home last night. We stayed in the hospital 8 1/2 hours yesterday! Whew! Long day! Longer day for Mike & Casey! Erin is feeling great! Erin has clinic Monday, and depending on her lung function Monday, dr will decide whether we get to home for Thanksgiving or not. Believing God!
