Discharged!

After a successful surgery and a lengthy and difficult recovery, Noah has finally been discharged from Children's Hospital.  Donor Ember also has been released from Brigham and Women's Hospital. Noah continues to do well with his new kidney and is monitored by the kidney team several times weekly.  The family will stay close by for the next week.  

A heartfelt thank you to all who have supported our family during Noah's journey!

  

A Forever Connection!

Noah's new kidney continues to function wonderfully and he has been transitioned out of the ICU to a private room.  Ember was able to visit him today after discharge from Brigham and Women's.  Noah will be at Children's Hospital for the next few weeks and we will keep you informed as he progresses. Thanks so much for the prayers - they are working!

Success!

Ember and Noah are both doing well. Noah had a rough night and had to be sedated but is now resting comfortably in the ICU. Noah's new kidney is doing amazingly well and has removed all of the toxins from his body overnight. Before surgery, his Creatinine was 6.9 and his BUN was in the high 80's. Today's labs came back with Noah's Creatinine at 0.2 and his BUN at 8!

Ember, we are forever grateful. We would like to thank everyone for their love, support, and prayers. We are truly blessed!

We've Arrived!

Nic and Josi, Grace and Noah have made it to Boston in advance of Thursday's surgery date.  Thanks to those watching their home, and a heartfelt thank you to everyone for the prayers and support though Noah's journey.

A New Date!

We are excited to announce the new transplant surgery date for March 30th.  Prayers that everyone is able to stay healthy leading up to then and for a smooth surgery for both Noah and Ember! Noah and family will be in Boston for most of April, and are looking forward to Spring and the next chapter in his journey.

Thanks to all who continue to support us with prayers and well wishes.  We will keep you posted!

Setback

Noah has had a setback. After having a respiratory syncytial virus infection, his scheduled transplant has been postponed. Noah must be well for six weeks for his procedure to happen.  We will wait for a new date.

Transplant Date!

The long awaited date has finally arrived! 

At 23.5 pounds, Noah has grown to the point where he is big enough to accept Embers kidney.   The family will move to Boston at the end of the month for the February 23rd transplant date at Children's Hospital

Thanks to everyone for your support and please keep Noah in your prayers.
