Afternoon update...

Ashlie and my parents met with a couple of the transplant surgeons late this morning.  The consultation went well, and they learned more details about what these next few weeks could hold for her.  She still has to be officially placed on the transplant list- the committee meeting happens Monday afternoon for this- but is more than likely considered a good candidate for a liver transplant.  Because of the disease of her liver and the condition she is in, she will more than likely move to the top of the list and could have a liver in the next couple of weeks.  Please be praying for a few specific things:

-For Ashlie to be officially placed on the donor list and that a liver becomes available quickly
-For her kidney function- most of the problems she is having with her kidneys are linked to the shape her liver is in, but we need to pray that they will not be damaged too much before she gets new liver
-For Ashlie's strength and spirits physically, mentally, and spiritually.  She has endured quite a wild last four weeks and is still in some shock about how quickly her health has deteriorated.

Thanks again for all of your prayers and support!
