One Week at Home – May 19, 2024

It is good to be home. We still haven’t unpacked everything from the hospital stay, because we have to pack for another possible stay. Zayne has a right side heart cath on Friday, May 24.  Right side (vein) is safer than going to the left side (artery). The primary reason for this cath is to check for rejection by looking at heart biopsy samples under a microscope. Flows and pressure will be measures and calculated.

Once Zayne’s immunosuppression level for Tacrolimus have stabilized, she will be able to remove 3 meds from her regiment. These are the meds she takes every morning. Some meds are prescribed for up to 6 months post Transplant, and others will drop off as pain and heart function improve.

    Randy, you amaze me at your resilience and immense love, care, and support you give Zayne. You both are in my thoughts and prayers as Zayne continues to get her strenth back. Much love to you both.
