We go back and forth between the hospital and Ronald McDonald House for appointments. He usually has 3 appointments daily with different specialties and they are spread out throughout the day.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The good news is that each specialty we see agrees that Kason is weeks ahead of where he should be. We are hopeful to be going home earlier than expected.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Our nights consist of fighting his blood sugars. It is so strange that we have less control of it when he isn&#8217;t eating. Endocrine has stressed how important it is to keep a tight control on his blood sugars right now to give his islet cells that were transplanted the best outcome. We are trying to figure out a pattern of his overnight blood sugars but so far, it isn&#8217;t working with us. Lots of sleepless nights making sure he stays within range is taking its toll on Joseph and I. Kason sleeps through it all and gets plenty of rest for healing.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Thank you all for the continous prayers <span class=\"pq6dq46d tbxw36s4 knj5qynh kvgmc6g5 ditlmg2l oygrvhab nvdbi5me sf5mxxl7 gl3lb2sf hhz5lgdu\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t80\/1\/16\/1f64f.png\" alt=\"????\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">***THANK YOU to everyone who participated and shared our Chipotle fundraiser.
