Day 42- May 22nd

Hi there, it's Margaret writing the blog now.  I feel pretty darn good, thanks for asking.  Friday I had a chest CT to check out that pokey feeling at the top of my incision.  Saturday, Jim returned and Rich went home.  Had a great week with my little brother.  It had been over  40 years since we shared a room together, but all went well.  Also on Saturday, one of my transplant docs called with the results of the scan (of course by then the pokey feeling was gone).  Looks like no infection at the top of the incision, but they found two other minor things that they will follow up with additional scans.  Sunday, we actually took a short trip to Kohl's (Jim's clothes were getting tacky).  No eating after seven, due to AM blood work to check the level of one of my anti-rejection meds.  The level changes frequently and then they change my dose.  Working toward getting everything in balance for when I am home.  Amy joins me in a few days.  Matt's water polo team ended up in the top eight at State.

  1. I love "hearing" your voice. Sounds like you are doing so great all things considered. I declare you a month or so away from coming home.
    Chicago meeting end of June with Dr.Dispenzieri. You will miss it. Probably going to say you have a new heart or something. Always an excuse: - )Love you and see you soon.

  2. It may be too early for this, but it would be wonderful if you two were able to come to the June Support Group. We're thrilled by your progress.

  4. Hi Margaret. So nice to hear from you! Not that we don't like Jim's colorful commentary. Great to hear that things are still going very well. Congrats to Matt's team.
