Update Monday 07/19/2010:Matt looked great today and is less "bitchy" for lack of a better word. He was actually apologizing to nurses and to us for the way he had been but he couldn't help it. He had his pick line changed and his port for dialysis. His white blood cell count is up but he has no fever so sometimes t...hose can be the reason so they changed them to see if that will help. He will be on dialysis daily for a little while because every other day just isn't helping filter his blood enough. He talked to Bri today and it was emotional but good I think for both of them. He wanted me to let everyone know that he appreciates all the prayers and thoughts coming his way. Today he realized how serious it was. He is in some discomfort and they give him morphine as needed, but that makes his belly not so good...he ate some today as well. Slow progress but great progress...really great!!!!!
