LIVE FROM THE TRANSPLANT TRIBUNE NOOZROOM

This just in to the Transplant Trib International Nooz Room:

It has been reported that your Editor/Publisher and his Chief Noozperson (and dear wife) have won a hard-fought and bloody battle on eBay. The prize: two tickets to see James Taylor and Carole King at HP Pavilion next Tuesday evening, part of the continuing celebration of Mother's Day 2010. We were both big JT and CK fans when we very first met at UCSB (1971 but who's counting?) and even included their music in our wedding.

This should be categorized under "anything worth doing is worth doing to excess".

    WE want to go. Gary's been talking about it since he saw they were coming here. I've see JT several times but it should be a fantastic show with Carole King. We're jealous!!

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.
