April 2010

Don't know if I can continue this blog, but think I will try and salvage it. My poor mind just doesn't want to function on anything. This week has been rather rough. Thought I started out with either a virus or a touch of food poison, then as the week wore on, I had no desire to eat whatsoever. Therefore, you know that classifies me as SICK! I've eaten very little, mostly cereal and yogurt. I finally figured it out - took only a week. The Bactrim they gave me for a possible uti has done a number on my stomach/gastrointestinal tract. (Oh yeah, I remember them saying something about double strength. oi) Anything I eat causes distress. No energy. cramping. I'm so tired of fighting something ALL THE TIME! I felt better than this before the transplant. If I could be assured that it never gets better than this, I'd gladly go back to where I was . . . on dialysis. That is almost blasphemy to all those kidney patients waiting with anticipation to get "the call." So many think transplant is the magic answer. Not necessarily so. My own daughter got a transplant two weeks ago. Everybody's situation is different. I'm glad my daughter got hers and hope she does well with it. As for me . . . . . . ? I don't know.

I'm not sure there's a good reason to even continue to blog. Seems like an activity in futility. A whole new year is started and I haven't figured out where the last one went. However, it is good sometimes to be able to read back over the posts and see where I've come from, good or bad, and see a little of where I am going, good or bad.

So, I am starting the year with tiredness, a slight sore throat, a desire for something different but have no great hopes of achieving much. That comes with the tiredness though.

Hopefully I'll get back in the swing of things after I've posted a few times.
