Home Safe and Sound

Don't want to leave everyone hanging........we did manage to depart UCSF around 4:30 Friday afternoon, and actually made it home shortly after 6 pm - not bad for a Friday evening! We are in the process of adjusting our routine to accommodate the slightly different prescription dosages, and of course the care and maintenance of Mr. Foley (as well as Foley Jr, the more discreet version for when RJ is out and about). His main goal at the moment, besides continuing the fight against the infection, is to catch up as much as he can on his auto racing backlog on our DVR. And now that my daily commute to SF is over, I will devote the weekend to catching up on my work. All is well again!

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.
