On Tuesday afternoon,I did received an OFFICAL letter  from the UW medical center in Seattle,Wash.Verifying that I had made it to the OFFICAL kidney transplant list. ;).I'm in the process of trying to get a FREE cell phone base on my disablity.That way,I'll be prepare to anwser the Important phone call from UW medical center.My dialysis center DON'T get too many people on the transplant list.Whenever someone has made it to the transplant list.The GOOD NEWS brighten up the entire staff mood :waving;.I've started to slowly pack a travel bag.
2day at dialysis,I asked if I could sit down instead of having to recline way back in my recliner.The tech.was quite happy ;) to allow me to sit.I had told the tech that I had over done it(exercise) yesterday.My right leg was hurting a little bit.NO muscle cramps 2day.NO trouble inserting the 2 needles into my fistula.
