Home Again, Home Again Jiggety Jig



After a somewhat hyper morning of packing Cheryl, Leslie and I set out in two cars for the return to Livermore. We arrived to find Andrew had already arrived from Sacto. We unpacked and hurried off to do what a Moss does best, have lunch! After yet another delicious and transplant-friendly meal and a wee bit of nonfat Frozen Yogie Andy dashed off to his house to join Linsey and her family for their Easter celebration.

After Leslie returned to Berkeley we continued unpacking and then took a well-deserved afternoon nap. We very much enjoyed the presence and affection we were receiving from Lucy. She definitely seemed happy to have us back around the house and despite the occasional bite or innocent swipe of a clawed paw it was delightful.

Thanks to our wonderful Kiddoes for all the help and a most pleasant afternoon. We have now had over 24 consecutive hours of relative sanity and I for one am very interested in continuing this welcome state of affairs.

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.
