Update: Kip came home this week. He is doing ok. He still has lots of fluid on his lower body and may take awhile to go away. We go back to Denver for his #5 heart biopsy, which shows rejection or not. All of the 4 biopsies have been good so far. It's going to be a long year. He does have to take a lot of meds that r very expensive. We would like to thank every one who has donated and sent cards. It was a very long month stay in the hospital. The first 6 months will be hard as he can catch anything very easy so he has to be very careful. Thanks everyone & God Bless.
