Bon Voyage

for a few days any ways.

Kameron has been transferred to Northwest Medical Center in Tucson. So, I'm headed to Tucson for several days to be with him and get this stuff figured out!!

Some good news:

The few treatments that they started here were already helping him feel better. I think they're just medicine's.

Dr. Montierth thinks that Kameron has a very stubborn and difficult virus that is causing him to have fevers and lose so much weight. It has also been messing up his blood. They even had to give him a blood transfusion but, he's on a blood cleanser medicine right now. And after they find the virus, he'll get better FAST!

His liver may not be failing - YAY! We are pretty sure he has hemochromotosis (the iron thing remember?) and it has been damaging his liver but, not to the point of failure.

All good news! So, at this new hospital we have 3 goals:

Find and kill this nasty virus.
Determine if it most definately is hemochromotosis and fix it.
Get Lupus under control.

And then my wonderful hubby gets to come home!!!!

So - tomorrow morning I'm OFF!

Bon Voyage! (or whatever I should be saying)

Hey Jami! I don't know you very well, but I know Kameron from good old EA days! I just came across your blog from Susan Martin's. She and I used to be roommates. So sorry Kameron is having health problems. My husband and I live in Tucson. I know this is kind of random, but we would love to help you and your family if you need anything while you're here. We live about 20 min from NW hospital. I actually just made my blog private recently so please email me at adrianabanana7@yahoo.com if you want to look at my blog and if we can help you and Kameron! You're in our prayers!
