Hey everyone hope your all keeping well. I was back for bloods on Wednesday and everything's doing good. My creatinine level is 36 and my nephrologist was very impressed. I'm doing really good and feeling great but when it's time to go and get my bloods done I get worked up. I'm just terrified he's gonna say sorry Mairead but it's rejecting. There's no reason for feeling this way as everything is going good. I suppose it's just part of getting over it cause it's not just the body that has to heal my mind has to come to terms with what I've been through. Well that's what I'm telling myself and just taking my time. I want to write a thank you to the donor family too but have no idea what to write words can never describe how grateful you are. So I'm taking my time there too. They told me at the hospital before I was discharged sometimes it takes months for people to be able to write and I should take my time.. Thanks again for all your kind message they mean a lot...  :thx;  :thx;  :thx;
