I don't know and feel like walking out due to one doctors attitude. Not to mention getting mystery meals and expect to eat it. If I have no part in choosing my food, do not send anything .

or some crisps (with binder), and wellcome home.
At least you can know now what you eat. I hope you feel okay,  and get strong enough to go on your trip.

I'm home, have to wear mask in public since immune system s lowered. Take this, eat that, drink this, avoid that, see us in a week, see G.. doctor for follow up (no idea why). Came home, greeted by cat who wanted my attention, opened mail, fell asleep till 10 pm Got up and went downstairs to hang out with pup and he pretty much was well behaved for once. No jumping up on me, no runing off to go upstairs, quiet, and just wanted to be petted. Seems to have gotten bigger since I last saw him pretty much a month ago.

pup must have been fed well, ask the recipe, maybe you can share. Glad you're home,
Are you allowed to try to increase your immune-system with supplements or something, or is that straight away a problem with rejection?

Cas, I read my discharge sheets today and found that they forgot to tell me something, get labs once a week! I normally do not read discharge sheets, this time lucky I did.

Took pup out for a walk, but could barely do .25 of a normal route. Basically went around the block getting light-headed. Posted video of him in the backyard on FB. He has gotten bigger since I last did anything with him in the first week of Feb.

definitely a good thing you looked this time. You probably feel better soon, and can walk further, cos you have probably not been eating well for a bit right? Take care,

So far prednisone is not doing a thing about appetite



I emailed a woman who is part of, not sure it's called a support group or not, but a group of guide dog users from a specific school who have meetings via confrence calling.

Anyway she cleared up concerns/ worries on why I had to fly out for 3 day's to try a couple dogs and to see if I  qualify. The reason this is done is so your not in class 2 weeks and have to be sent home without a dog because one may not be able to do task such as bending down to put harness on. Now I feel more confident I will get to go with my first choice of guide dog facilities.

I finally got a call back from my first choice guide dog school on flight plans. I will be flying out the second week of April for 3 days to try out a couple dogs and get class schedule on the Friday I fly back.
 
So in 3 weeks I have to get in better health/ recover better! Can't wait for my complimentary airline peanuts! :sarcasm;
