Hi Everyone!
Just wanted to drop by and tell you that I received a new kidney on March 27th 2007!!!!!
Never in my wildest dreams would I think I would receive this amazing gift after only being
on the list 23 months!
Doing really well. It is really amazing.
Thank you all for all your support over the months on dialysis.
I wish you all the best. I will drop in when it is easier for me to sit at the computer.
Best wishes to all of you!
SCYankee

Hi Everyone at IHD:
Sorry it has been so long since my last message. Today is 12 weeks with my new kidney. I still can't believe it. I am now going
for checkups in Atlanta once a month!! Everything looks good on the bloodtests & I feel great. Get alittle tired in the afternoons
so I take a little nap but I think that is because my blood pressure is lower then my body is used to.
I hope you are all doing as well as possible. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care,
SCYankee
