Geoff went to the kidney doctor yesterday and it was actually a very encouraging visit. The doctor told him that his kidneys are basically functioning at 50% (that is great for Geoff considering everything he has been through) and he felt that his kidneys were more than strong enough to make it through the transplant. When asked if Geoff would have to be on dialysis after the transplant the doctor felt pretty sure that unless something unexpected happen then dialysis would not be necessary. We are very pleased.
On another positive note Geoff has maintained his weight since April! He hasn't gained any of the initial 20 pounds lost, but we weren't holding our breath on that one. I am just thrilled that no more weight has been lost!
