Evaluation Approved!!!

Yes...you read that title right! Evan's transplant evaluation at Stanford has been approved by the insurance! The next step will be on Monday when we meet with outpatient records and EFMP (Exceptional Family Member Program) to arrange for transportation and lodging to be paid for by the military.  We are so blessed to have this as an option.  Once we have that paperwork started, we will schedule our appointment with the team at Stanford. I spoke to the transplant coordinator today (she called because they too got the referral) and she said they have open appointments for the rest of this month besides Thanksgiving and they are open into December. We are shooting for December 1st as we know that the paperwork process will be a little while.  That means that in just a few short weeks we will be on our way to California to have Evan evaluated for a liver transplant. Woot Woot!!! This is the first step on a long journey, but we are looking forward to this and feel it is the best option in treating Evan's MSUD. Please keep us all in your prayers and pray that Evan's evaluation goes well and that afterward TriCare (insurance) will approve the transplant!
