51/49

This is the result of Whitley's Nuc. Med. test. What does it mean? Well, several things:

1- The right kidney is doing 51% of the function and the left kidney is doing 49% for a total of 100% function! A perfect score would be 50/50.

2- 51/49 is the exact processing number that she had a little over a year ago, which confirms to me that she is perfectly stable and doing FANTASTIC. As we were told a year ago, this is an excellent reading and better than expected results from her surgeries.

3- I haven't spoke with the doctors yet (I read the machine for myself to get the numbers), but I surmise that they will conclude that the additional growth is simply to her physical growth this year...which has been remarkable.

Thanks again for your prayers and thoughts! We are relieved once again. Let summer begin!!!
