So I might have jumped the "impeachment" gun on Dr. Rosenblatt. The trial is still in session, so I'm not taking sides right now. However, Dr. Rosenblatt finally graced Graham with his presence last night, and it was hopeful news he brought.
Apparently Dr. Rosenblatt has not taken NO as an answer. His current mission in life (well, this week) is to convince the lead surgeon at Baylor, Dr. Mason, to go ahead and grant Graham a 2nd transplant. Just this news alone was a huge weight off our shoulders. But there is more; he has already spoken to a surgeon over a UT Southwestern about Graham's case and IF there is vascular access through Graham's groin, they will bring him up for discussion at their transplant meeting. Graham went in for a sonogram this evening. But wait, there is still more...Dr. Rosenblatt plans on calling Houston Methodist to discuss his case with them too.
Though we REALLY want the Photopheresis to work, transplant IS very scary; it is nice to know that if it doesn't, there is still a chance that he might live on.
Please continue praying and sending positive vibes Graham's way; they are really working. We are forever grateful for them.
Annnnddddd, if anyone knows ANYONE on any of these hospital medical boards...a kind word (or give me their number) always goes a long way :)
