Bob has been informed today that he has a staff infection from the kidney transplant. They said the antibiotics seem to be working and that they are going to focus on the blood clot in his right leg. Thank you all for all the help and prayers, Candace

They did reopen Bob today to drain fluid around kidney, they didn't have to remove kidney at this point. They are not sure what caused the infection. Bob will have to be on diyalais again until the kidney restarts. Bob will be on blood thinners after they figure out what caused the infection. He has a filter in his right leg for the blood clots for now. So far he s doing ok and we all hope that he continues to be strong because of his lung problems he is a very high risk, Also they had to give him meds to lower his heart rate because it was over 120 they got it down to 110. Thank you to everyone helping us in our time of need Please continue to pray. We will know more tomorrow because they are doing a lot of testing on him to try to get him better and hopefully get the kidney back to working once infections clear out with antibodies. Thank everyone again, with love,Candace

Bob is back in the hospital, has infection around new kidney, they might have to reopen him to get fluids from behind the kidney. He went to hospital on Tuesday the 15th because he was In pain then spiked a fever. They think it may be because drainage bag was taken off a little earlier then maybe it should of been. They are also checking him for blood clots. If everyone could please pray for him that would help. Thank you, Candace
