Live Remote Edition

Yes, I am back on 10 Long with a great view and no roomies. Some sort of nasty kidney thing attached me early Saturday morning. Fever. shakies, overall body aches, chills and the worse part, inability to produce pee despite extreme urges. There are several theories as Cheryl mentioned below, but more info from other people will be needed tomorrow. Antibiotics are happening. and the big symptom has been relieved by another visit with Mr. Foley.

I am fairly comfy at the moment, and soon I will get my late-night meds and turn in. I still need to mention a few significant events from last week so bear with me.

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.
