Elissa Is On Hold
 

Elissa had a bad week last month and was placed on the transplant inactive list. She is on a combo of anti fungal drugs prior to transplant due to a old fungal infection from when she was 15 years old. The combo was causing her to go numb, Lose her vision, Cuss and scream at my wife and myself for hours. Like a bad acid trip from the movies. 3 ER visits later and being admitted to Duke hospital. All better now but a nightmare that lasted a week and scared the Hell out of us and Elissa has no idea of what happened.
She is getting on a different anti fungal combo that is more tolerated and is back at rehab daily doing a 2 hour workout. We were told she should be placed on active status next month.
We are worried Corona could shut down Rehab and possibly Transplant....Duke is not taking new patients into the program and has sent everyone home that is not on the transplant list. Elissa is still on the list...just inactive due to drug interaction.

Oh no... hope all this COVID-19 stuff are sorted soon and Elissa gets back to active status.

Oh no! She was so hopeful! Praying things work out.
Thanks for the update.

So sorry to hear this. Good thoughts coming your families way.

Thank you for keeping us up to date. Best wishes!

I was wondering... thanks for the update. Best wishes to all in this really, really crappy time.

Damn! So sorry to read this...

Oh... More bad news. :(

Well all I can do is pray from here. All the best to you and your family.

EDIT: Being perfectly honest... Pretty crappy actually.
I've been following Elissa on Facebook and wondered why she hadn't posted in while.

Please tell her this from me: At some point she'll hit a "purple patch" and things will get better. Just hang in there.

Hang in there, she is a fighter and an inspiration. Sending good vibes your way.

No.

damn damn damn. You all have been through so much I just know you'll make it through all that remains ahead.

Temporary setback.
C'mon Elissa

Ouch, that stinks. I'm sure you guys will stay on task through this bump!

Give Elissa our best!

Still admiring the moxy and determination of this young lady and her family. You guys are all really strong! Keep fighting!
