8/10/24: Jesse Updates

Jesse continues to recover strong from the transplant. Here’s where we are currently:

  • The biopsy showed Jesse was at a rejection level of R1 which is down from R2! Remember this is a scale of 0-3, with 0 being the best. The doctors consider a 1 to be negative for rejection.
  • Jesse’s labs showed his magnesium levels were low, so they are adjusting his medication. Low magnesium has potential to cause abnormal heart rhythm so the doctors want these levels to be more normal.

As mentioned before, please sign up for the Pickleball Tournament on August 24th if you are interested or share with others who might be interested. There will also be a cornhole tournament in September, so keep an eye out for the upcoming announcement for that event!
