Sorry, Only a Preview

I feel bad 'cuz I have not appeared with a post lately. My friend Bob New Heart is leaving me in the dust. Anyway the counter keeps going up so there MUST be a few of you reading this stuff. I am running outta time as I write this before we prepare for our journey to Mountain View for the monthly gathering of TRIO (Transplant Recipient International Organization) so this will be short and sweet. In addition we will be spending most of tomorrow at UCSF for a coupla new tests.

So these and other subjects will just have to wait for Saturday, I fear. Please be patient with your feeble ol' staff (mostly me) here at the Transplant Trib. Watch this space on Saturday.

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.
