It is so great to have the support. Thank you all. Well, as of today I have 26 days and 11 dialysis days left.
Yes, I am scared and excited at the same time. I am just praying for a successful surgery. I am hoping that kidney will just start right up. I just started dialysis in September, and my kidney function has gone WAY down. Back then, between treatments I would gain maybe 1 kilo (2.2lbs) between treatments... now I gain 3 - 3.5 kilos (6.6 lbs - 7.7 lbs) between treatments. That is just from Monday to Wednesday!!! I am soooo ready to have a working kidney. I am looking forward to going back to work in August. I miss working with my kidos.
Thank goodness I have had fundraisers for over a year and have saved money, my catastrophic leave ran out April 28th, so I will not get a paycheck again until Sept 28th!!! I go back to work in August, but our first check is in Sept. One of my friends is going to organize a bake sale while I am gone.
Okay, I have rambled enough..... thanks again for the support!
