Good morning wonderful ppl .

Thank you !

I came home to my husband working on his bike and doing an oil change . Getting it ready for our summer riding . I’m excited as he is too as it’s sat in our garage last two summers 😞 .

Maybe we can have a normal summer !

Hey guys . Edgar had a repeat bronch Friday . It went well far as afterwards. They listened and did a low volume bronch using less fluid . He recovered great .

We were treated very nasty by nurses sadly . This place is god awful and so trashy , their nurses are pure trash with the way they treat patients . Anyways we are consulting with the transplant facility in Philly for possible transfer ! Fingers crossed !

No rejection was detected !!!! Thank god ! Treatment worked but this will be monitored closely as it can come back and be even worse next time .

We did have some other results come in showing other stuff , I’ll update once Hopkins calls with that and what they will do .

We are currently at Easton er , getting ultrasound of his arm as he’s got signs of blood clot . He stopped his clotting meds as it’s been 6 months . I called this actually & told him this is a bad idea and that I didn’t agree with them stopping the meds . He’s super high risk for them . The procedure alone could have caused clots outside of already being high risk . He has a blood clot in his neck as I was typing this as they were doing the u/s . They are treating him from home for now .

Please keep prayers coming as life has no been quite “ normal “ . We are trying to adjust to a new normal & it’s been hard to say the least .

I’ve def learned to let stupid things go and enjoy life as we can every day . Things have not been smooth at all . If anything at all could happen , it’s happened . I’ve learned to let the sink full of dishes not worry me as it normally does , laundry piling up not bother me as time is more important.

My job , my bosses & co workers have been such a huge support system for me and him as well . Always asking how he’s doing , checking in with me . I’m blessed for my job and the ppl I work for and with ! Never felt so at home with a job as I do here at Preston Toyota ! This was not a job/position I ever imagined myself in and it falling In my lap as it did was gods way of showing me I can do anything I put my mind too .

Thank you to all our amazing friends and family for the support in every way possible ! Please continue to pray for him !

My kids , thank you and mama loves you all so much ! I’m blessed with the perfect family. We have been down in every way possible but my kids helped me in more ways then they even know ! I love you kids more than life itself !

Much love Edgar and Amber

Hey all ! We are here and alive . I’m just working so much that social media is the last thing on my mind when I get off .

Edgar is sick and has been for some while . Has a nasty cough that we seem we can’t get rid of . He’s got Hopkins appt next week along with his bronch on 26th . That could be delayed but is also very important for hidden infections and to rule out any further rejection that can be hidden as well . They said yesterday that they can still do the bronch but yet said in past when he’s sick they won’t do them as it can cause new infections , so now again I’m on fence of what to do as my trust with them is beyond a negative zero 😞. Anything they say or want to do sets him back physical & health wise .

Anyways he’s home resting most of the day taking it easy . Sadly no gym for weeks now as he’s short of breath with most physical activity . Of course as the wife I’m worried and dislike the sound of his cough but if anything further happens I’ll keep all posted .

Again sorry the delays . Again thank you all for any and all support !

Much love Edgar & Amber

Happy holidays to all !

Edgar is doing well besides us getting some viruses and passing it back and forth lol . Even me staying out of his face I still caught it as I have no immune system with my lupus .

Anyways he’s just home waiting and praying for the day he gets called back to work while looking online for work as well , locally driving sometime in the future . I always feel things happen for a reason and him being delayed due to no positions being open (his position ) I feel is happening for whatever reason . Sorry for the delays in posts . I’m working now trying to help make up the difference financially and my hours are from open to close plus cleaning for the Toyota .

In January he will have his 3 month bronch (biopsy ) to rule out rejection , hidden infections and just to clean his lungs out . This actually sadly sets him back physically afterwards sometimes causing fluid build up , shortness of breath on top of what he still experiences on a daily basis physically . They said it may take 18-24 months for a “full “ recovery . It has been only 14 months . Even a year later most think him being home and all that all is “normal “ . I hate that because nothing will ever be normal again. Our lives have changed so much . Anything and everything with his health frightens me and not trusting Hopkins at this point . I am very protective over my husband .

He’s in the gym daily 3/4 hrs , cleaning , walking dogs taking care of home while I’m working . I don’t enjoy leaving him but we don’t have a choice . Things worked out as planned. I waited for the right timing far as working and waiting for the right job to pop up and it all worked out !

Merry Christmas to everyone and we ask for continued prayers especially in January & praying that sometime soon he gets a call for work .

Thank you all for the support in every way possible ! Please also don’t take it personal if I don’t call /text or respond as I come home from work and eat and literally go to bed .

Much love from Edgar & Amber
