Great webinar

I just watched a webinar about kidney transplantation hosted by the PKD foundation . It has 'everything you ever wanted to know about kidney transplants'. The John Hopkins doctor does a great job of explaining the wait, the benefits of live donations, etc. Then he answers questions.

Life goes on...

Yes, we have settled on our routine. But we can't say that dialysis has not impacted our lives. Pretty much everything we do has to have in mind the fact that three days a week are pretty much shot for Dan. And we really only have Sunday off, since Mondays we go to Restaurant Depot and any other errand we may need to do (Sam's, Publix). I still go to the market on Tuesdays and then on to do prep.

One of our candidates was affected by the economic downturn and won't be able to finish testing. We have another candidate that's will be tested. We are so lucky to have had several candidates. We also got response from the article in Creative Loafing. They are all heroes!

We are doing okay hanging in there but please keep us in your thoughts!
