bad/good news

Abel is getting sicker. I know this sounds like bad news but it actually is good news for him getting the transplant.  At the time I am writing this he has thrown up twice in the last hour. Since we got home around 9 or 9:30 he has thrown up about 4-5 times.

Last night we went out to eat at Taco Villa. He assures me that it was the food that made him sick. I assure him it was not the food, it is his liver.

The process is as I can see it very clearly; He is able to eat, but causes him to throw up, which causes him to not want to eat; which causes him to lose weight. This means he will be (and already has been) getting weaker.

It is discouraging for both of us but we also know the sicker he is, the faster he will get the transplant. That perspective brings us some hope.
