After talking to the liver surgeon today, Kerry and the doctor decided to do a different kind of biopsy.  Rather than an ultrasound guided needle biopsy through the skin, they will do an internal laparoscopic biopsy which uses an ultrasound probe which can be placed directly against the liver and will provide the best visualization of the liver for an accurate biopsy.  The date for the biopsy is postponed since the liver surgeon who would do this is out of town next week.  We won't know the date of the biopsy until next week.
