Gabe’s New Kidney Journey

01/09/2026

Hope everyone has had a great Christmas and new years celebration!!!🥳

We had a good one. I (mom) and dad ran off for a much needed vacation to reset and recharge for the year.

After all we been through definitely needed.

Today we had transplant clinic at oshners hospital in Kenner.

Well………..

This year is starting out fabulous and blessed for the family. Many good things have been happening. And more to come………..

Transplant team said they are going to make Gabe active again on the list!!!!!!!!😇😍🥰🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

That means if your a type O blood 🅾️ you could be Gabes saving grace to living a life of no dialysis. Which means more of a normal life no clinic visits three times a week or more to filter his blood out. And a transplant means his heart will get healthier and he can live longer 🥺🥰🙌🏻.

So if you want to be that person click on the link and send your request in.

What does that mean for you?…… no out of pocket expenses except gas and time. If you work 4-6 weeks off depending on your job. Office job usually back sooner. Our insurance covers all your testing needs for transplant as well as the hospital stay for the time of surgery.

I’ll post link in comments to make it easier.

Just wanted to say thank you all for all the prayers and positive thoughts.

🥰😍 love you all.

BTW ………AINT GOD GOOD!!!!!😊

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Gabes doing good yall. He’s got a very nasty wound. Today we will have X-rays to see if there is any bone infection starting.

I believe God that there will not be any bone infection cause my boy can’t afford that.

Waiting on insurance approval for hospital bed with an air mattress to help with healing.

He had three appointments yesterday. One dialysis, wound care and cardiology.

His ticker is looking great by the ekg. Labs are going good too all around.

Today blood testing again and Wednesday he has dialysis and occupational and physical therapy evaluation.
