RJ/Bob/Irv is a 61-year-old beloved husband, father, uncle, brother, motor racing fanatic, and Livermore resident who received a heart and kidney transplant in February of 2010. Bob's recent years have been defined by his health, which forced him into early retirement. Unfortunately, many of his days were spent in a dialysis center or at various medical appointments, primarily due to his living with diabetes for over 40 years. Numerous were panic visits to various Emergency Rooms all over California for treatment of chest pain. But now no more dialysis and no more late-night dashes to UCSF! The main focus of Bob's family, friends, and doctors has been a prompt transplant, so that he can get back to traveling with his Sweetie, driving fast cars, enjoying great music and laughing with his friends. This blog will function as a way to communicate with all interested parties and to keep everyone informed. And hopefully it can serve a great purpose also, in making people more aware of the importance of organ donation and how each life saved has a positive effect on dozens of related friends and relatives.
Yo yo yo! What an awesome use of communication technology to keep us all informed on the latest and sometimes not-so-greatest adventures of Super Birv. Hats off to the kids, especially Linsey, for providing this means of updating.
ReplyDeleteIrving, keep your chin up and your bottom firmly planted until you are given the green light to dance! We have you in our thoughts and prayers!
Hey Andy, Linsey, Irving, anyone out there... I just joined the blog as a "follower", but what does this mean? Will I automatically get links to any updates sent to my email address? Or do I have to check in periodically. I wouldn't want to miss any important news due to my technological lameness. Help!
ReplyDeleteHey Kelly. I believe as a follower, updates to the blog simply appear on your "Dashboard" - you should be taken directly to this page once you sign in. I personally do not have updates sent directly to my email, but I'm sure that is offered as a "setting" that you could change up.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Thanks for all the "props" Bob, Dave & Cherie. It really was my pleasure setting this up. Can't wait to watch it grow!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, being a "follower" doesn't involve a big bowl of kool-aid.
ReplyDeleteWhat, no Kool-Aid? I'm outta here!
