Yes I'm out here just watching the end of Australia v. South Africa cricket game even though it is 2am!

As for coming to Vegas??? Oh honey I so would LOVE to come... but I have no kidney!!! If I had a transplant YOU BET I would be there in a heartbeat... until that day though it will remain a dream to hang out with the IHD crowd (specially the ladies of IHD!!! hehehehe)

I will make it one of these years... I so promise!! It is on my post-transplant agenda!

In a word, Richard, yes. But not about your legion of admirers - just make sure you get the super duper jumbo extra large hot tub so that we won't be crowded.  :-*

But, I hope the cat is for Celeste...

Let's hope KK doesn't try that in Dubai... or she could land up in the slammer...

I just realised last night that the hot tub party has to be off :( Of course for transplantees that's one of the more unsafe things to be partaking in - germs and such... and that was one of the main reasons for the bikini wearing!!! I wanna see those scars baby!! I couldn't think of anything more special and beautiful in our kidney community than to see transplant scars (you all understand how I mean that!) and what they represent!!!

So maybe we'll have to move it to a pool party - that might be more acceptable health wise?? Anyone know???  I need to plan!!!   :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;

Public hot tubs are an issue after transplant.  I've got a feeling RM plans a very very public tub party...so off to the pool we go!

No, I will not be wearing a bikini!  Frightening children and small animals is not on my agenda.

Oh good.  Yeah, mine is in my backyard and only me and the kids use it.  LOL on the bikini.  I'm working on getting in shape so I can wear one in the near future.  We'll see what happens.  LOL!

Hot tubs are a health issue after transplant?  I never thought of that.  Yet, the hot tub that I could technically use anytime is at my boyfriend's work (a long-term stay hotel).  He's the maintenance person, so he keeps track of the pool and hot tub..i'll just have him triple check the levels before i get in! HAHA loopholes!
But not wearing a bikini EVER in my life..I have enough belly fat now..showing off belly fat and a scar to go with it? atleast I know I'd be the only one in the hot tub (while everyone else runs in fear!)  :rofl;
