Hey Team Hudson, Sean is completing the remainder of his full transplant eval. This includes lots of testing and procedures over the next 6 weeks. Once completed, the transplant committee reviews, approves or requires more info/tests, and determines which status he will be listed under.
Sean returns to Plano/Dallas on Wednesday and also Friday this week. He will undergo a lung biopsy soon also. Thank you all for remaining in prayer along with us as Sean moves further in to this {complicated} process.
Most important to us, please be in prayer for our children.

Sean’s procedure in Plano was completed, and unfortunately, the team was unable to find the specific irregular beat (PVC) that initiates Sean’s cardiac arrest (vfib). Sean has “PVC initiated VFib” and the team was unable to perform a successful ablation. We knew going into this procedure that it could be very challenging. Sean will not be restarted on his anti-arrhythmia medicine which keeps him from being shocked by his internal defibrillator when his heart stops beating. The remaining option is to wait for the next vfib episode, allow Sean to be shocked, and initiate the team’s next plan at that time. As you can imagine, this was disappointing.
Ahead of Sean’s Plano procedure, he was admitted to the hospital a week prior for very low blood pressures. He continues to experience low blood pressure even with stopping/decreasing all his heart medications. We are working with his team closely to optimize his medications as much as he tolerates.
Sean’s transplant team is following him closely. His transplant case remains open, and his pre-work up is completed. Sean’s full transplant evaluation has not proceeded yet. Sean has additional tests planned in the upcoming weeks/months.Our greatest hope is for a miracle and Sean can be healed completely! In the meantime. we are trusting Sean’s transplant team for guidance on this unfamiliar path.
This has been a roller coaster of emotion that continues to test our strength and endurance daily. But, with God, all things are possible! We know our family is covered because we’ve felt His blessings. On the absolute worst days, we made it through by the Grace of God. Sean is so special, and I know God intends to use his voice in special ways!
We need your prayers. And we thank you for continuing to support Sean, and our family.
