Ditto Yesterday
Pretty same-old today. Visit from the home health nurse with no new developments. I am still "leaking" but no worse than before. Cheryl managed to get out to Whole Paycheck and pick up a few provisions.
Tomorrow I go to Parnassus for another biopsy. If they go in through my neck it will be pretty quick. If they use the groin there will be a 3-4 hour bedrest lying completely flat. And it is fasting starting at midnight so I am hoping for the "quickie".
Bob/Irv
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.
