The deep concern about her kidney function is easing. The transplant seems completely successful. The other day when I saw her, she really looked herself. Her hair has grown out enough that it looks like a style that might have been chosen. Instead of sitting huddled up protectively in her chair, she was sprawled across it with one leg draped over an arm. A much more natural pose for an 8 year old watching TV.
One of her Grandmas took over updating her CaringBridge page. She describes things quite well. Check it out.

I tried posting some of this on FB, but adds a link to the page and them seems to disappear when I actually post it.
