This past Memorial Day weekend was SO much fun!! We had our friends over from Dallas....that would be Donnie and Martha, and their kids David and Maria. My husband David and Donnie have been good friends since they were little kids. And now, we have baby girls who are just about the same age-- Elise was born exactly 7 weeks before Maria! They were both born 5 weeks early. David is Maria's godfather, and Donnie is Elise's godfather. Anyway....they spent the weekend here at our house, and we had a fantastic holiday weekend together!
Elise & Maria...best friends forever!!

In other news....
Elise's pediatrician, Dr. Pocsik, called me unexpectedly today just to check to see how Elise is doing. Dr. Pocsik is just the best doctor in the world....hands down. It was so thoughtful of her to call. And it's not even just that. First and foremost, I feel like I owe the world to her for following her instinct, ordering tests, and discovering Elise's liver disease early, before it was too late for the Kasai operation. I can't even say how many times I've been told by specialists at Children's Hospital, "You have a great pediatrician." Then Dr. Pocsik has literally made herself available to us 24 hours a day. She has given me her cell phone number, and believe me, I have used it. So anyway, we had a nice long talk today about this "transplant path" that we have found ourselves following at this point. Basically, all things considered, she agrees with the plan, although she admits that she did not see this transplant referral in the cards a month ago.
