05.13.2010 - Two-year Biopsy

From Julian's COTA journal

Long time, no post. We're back in Palo Alto for Julian's two year post-transplant biopsy. Julian is doing great, and we can hardly believe it's been so long already since the kidney transplant! God has been good indeed.

Checked in yesterday at the Ronald McDonald House. This morning, a marathon Dr's appointment, followed by an ultrasound this afternoon. Tomorrow, the biopsy itself. Then the weekend to recover. On Monday, follow-up clinics in the a.m., then a fluoroscpic study to check on the state of his bladder/kidney connection on Monday afternoon. After that, the long drive home.

It's been a good, albeit exhausting trip so far. Pray for a successful procedure, and safe travel home. Will post more as the weekend progresses.
