Day One 3:30pm update

Update One: 3:30pm

To all family and friends.
This is a quick update. from Keith (emily's dad if you don't know me) the call came at 7:30am. we were on a charter jet by 9:30. in Seattle a bit after 10:00am. they were waiting at UWmed and we were in ICU in a flash and they swarmed on Emily like a pit crew. She was in total control joking and smiling as they put in multiple IVs. About eight nurses and a handful of docs. Then down to a quick xray into pre-op and some huge hugs and see you in a little whiles, Peg and I left her in some very good hands. That was at 12:20. The transplant began at about 12:30. I just spoke with the OR, a nurse six feet from Emily, he said she was doing well and had at least four more hours. Hopefully they will call is soon with more information. It is now 3:30. Please send thoughts and prayers Emily's way, she is strong but everything helps, we can feel it at times like this. Also, offer our thanks and prayers to her donor and their family.
I'll mail every now and then. Thank you.
Love from us all.
Keith
