Please pray for our almost 9 year old son. Josh has been on dialysis at home for the past year but this week out of the blue a nasty bacterial infection ended our ability to due dialysis at home. Josh had surgery yesterday to remove one dialysis catheter and insert another. Now we have to drive back and forth to Boston (a 2 hour commute each way) 3 times a week inorder to have him dialyzed. It will be at least 2 months before we either know if he can be retransplanted again or before we can try to restart at home dialysis.
Holly
