We are back at home. The echocardiogram was an easy test and we arrived at home just in time for dinner. Philip and I had a real chance to talk things over during the drive There were two things he wanted to talk about. The first was to just go over the Liver Transplant Meeting. In a previous blog I mentioned how this meeting was emotionally overwhelming. As a result, Philip had taken a couple of days to process the information and then expressed how he personally was feeling. In the meeting, they gave us a run down of all the procedures, as well as a long list of things that can go wrong. Several times they mentioned that the patients had “end stage liver disease”. It was a lot to absorb.
An additional issue has also surfaced. As a result of everything, he has started to look a bit more sickly and frail. Unfortunately, a number of people we encountered on the trip, began referring to him as a woman. They would say “Yes M’am”, or “does she need a wheelchair?” This occurred many times. It is really weird, because I don’t think he looks anything like a woman. Phil came up with a solution, the idea of getting a hat. What a shame that he has to deal with that indignity as well.
Phillip, what the heck??? a woman??? Go figure?! People are so predictable unpredictable. A boy with long hair before his upshernish – Oh, what a cute girl she is …. people’s perception always amazes me! Never worry what other people think. Be true to yourself and you conquer everything you want to.

We are thinking of you and we miss you so much!
When we are in a car Rachel says that whe wants Phillip’s CD (“30 silly songs for kids” that he gave her a while a ago)She loves this CD (her favorite song is the one about a frog in the hole in a bottom of the seat)
I mention Pesach Yakov every time I pray and every time for Misheberach in shul.
May HaShem bless you!
