He kept asking for Versed (an amnesiac medication) until I finally had to tell him to stop because he was acting like a drug fiend. The preliminary results show no signs of organ rejection! He is plowing away at home school and will be attending summer school. He hopes to start driver&#8217;s Ed. this summer.<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8ol0i-0-0\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8ol0i-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"8ol0i-0-0\">May 12th: <\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8ol0i-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"8ol0i-0-0\">Nolan had his kidney stent removed on Thursday, May 10th. Two more weeks on &#8216;house arrest&#8217;. Labs look terrific.
