Tomorrow will be day 22 and Monday&rsquo;s scope &amp; biopsy continues to show no signs of rejection.

She is on a low calorie &ldquo;formula&rdquo; feed at a rate of 33mls\/hr. continuous. They increase by 1-2mls every 12 hrs. Once she gets to 40 they will increase calories and start low &amp; work up. It&rsquo;s a very slow process. She is allowed to have 2 no sugar popsicles a day &amp; that makes her happy. Dr. Sam hinted on Monday that chicken &amp; rice would be in her near future!!!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">All of her lab work is beautiful. Her liver numbers are steadily trending down and her GGT which was once at 578 is now down to 155 (normal is &lt;40). Her pancreatitis has resolved. She is having some intense &ldquo;mystery pain&rdquo; on her right side but all labs &amp; scans prove everything is as it should be. The team is monitoring &amp; as of now we are assuming it&rsquo;s just part of the healing process.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Victoria is as strong as she has always been and healthier than I have seen her in years.
