Hoping she is doing ok.  She has been having a rough time.  Chat room isn't the same without Wenchie.   :cuddle;

Thanks for all the good thoughts folks...they SO help!  I am receiving Rituxan treatments to treat rejection once again.  Pesky Donor Specific Antibodies!  Stubborn little SOBs!!
Got a bit of good news and bad news last week.  My hemoglobin is down to 7.2...so now I also see a hematologist....guess I am running out of blood.
BUT...........my creat dropped from 3.2 to 2.5....so I know that "lil kidney that could" is still trying to do the job....he had me worried there for a few weeks that he had given up on me!
I am keeping my chins (yes, furry chins) up and hoping for the best!  Thanks to all of you.  I love ya!!!!
