BLASTED 1A!!!

Well, Sierra, Gage, and I came back from California last night. Sierra's biopsy was, yes, another 1A. Which they say isn't bad. It just means there are some white blood cells lurking around her heart, but they aren't recognizing her heart as foreign. They are just a little suspicious. Still, a ZERO would be wonderful. Sierra's echo looked great and they said there was no fluid around her heart. So, that was good! We get to return to California in May.

We got to see Shawn and Trista and went to lunch with them. Unfortunately poor Ben had a biopsy scheduled for 1:00pm Wednesday afternoon, and at 4:00pm they were still waiting to go in. Which is horrible, because you can't have anything to eat or drink until after the biopsy. He was starving to say the least. However, Ben and Angel escaped the waiting area so we were able to see them for a short 10-15 minutes. Than you guys for coming out to say hi, it was still good to see you even if it was briefly. Ben and Shawn both look AWESOME!! Here's to a ZERO Ben!

We are loving to hear all your up date's. Michelle Hansen said she talked to you the last time you was at Church when you was at Stanford in January. Did you see her this time?? We talked while we was in Hawaii 2 weeks ago.
Hope everything keeps going well.
Love
Jay and Bonnie
