Newest Update

Journal entry by Lara Macklin

Wednesday Marcus and I celebrated year one with Sarah in our hearts.

Kendra is doing an amazing job and all my lab work has been excellent! My body on the other hand continues to fight back a bit and lots of medication adjustments over the course of the past four months. The latest update is that those adjustments are working well so prayers to my wonderful care team for their expertise in handling this.
I added a new doctor to my repertoire, an infectious disease specialist. Never know when you might need one of those!
 
A few fun pictures attached of our night out as well as the tree I planted the week before the actual transplant, TT made it through a very hot summer with my love and care, and all set for the winter now.
 
Thanksgiving week was especially special with Miles home!
 
Thank you, thank you, thank you to the well wishes, the love, the support, from all of you reading this and many others who aren’t. I’m truly lucky and won’t ever take that for granted.
 
Lara
