Welcome to Jamie and Tim's blog. No I didn't set this up. Jamie did, because I'm too old to understand. At this point in my life, everytime new information enters my mind, other information has to leave. Like the old Mad Max thunderdome movie, "two man enter, one man leave" That's how my thougths work these days.
Brief History for those of you who don't know.
Jamie was diagnosed at 10 years with a auto immune liver disease. Essentialy her immune system decided the liver it shared a body with, wasn't good enough so it decided to attack it. We were lucky that we found a specialist, Dr. Barclay that figured it out within a couple of months. I've read online that some people's cases took over a year to figure out. But even at that point the damage was done, a lot of scaring on the liver.
The family was told, it could go 3 ways, maintain, grow out of it, or transplant. So as most of you, we are on the 3rd option 14 years, many hospital visits, countless tests, and many sleepless nights later.
