Yesterday was my last appointment with one of the doctors I've been seeing. And I am finally rid of the 29 staples they used to close the incision. Wonderful relief!!
I had visions of me journaling all the details of my journey through transplant, but somehow I've found it too tedious, yes, even for me. So, I'm managing to hit the high spots and hope that is helpful. All my days seems to run together. I have been able to see some improvement each week and that's very encouraging.
Yesterday after my appt. my dear sweet hubby took us to the Olive Garden. M--m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-! One of my favorites! Didn't have time to do any shopping though. We just barely made it home in time to go to church.
The kidney walk is in about two weeks. I guess I'm prepared, but not as much as I would like to be. The surgery put me behind, but everybody has done well so I'm not complaining. Hope you will support the National Kidney Foundation wherever you live. It's a good cause.
