Dan's Kidney

October Update


Things are going well. There is a lot to report....

Dan is feeling well and is doing more and more every day. He has reason to believe that wait may not be as long as we previously thought....perhaps a year. So we are very happy about that. Of course, Dan reminds me that it would still need to be a good match.

He's also had good test results and they might even cut back on the amount of time that he does dialysis.

We went to the Nebraska/USC football game with our friends Dick and Sharon. I was probably the happiest person there. I was just glad to be out doing something "normal" even though Nebraska lost badly.

Last week-end we went to Chicago to visit Dave, Ann, Josh, Kate, and Abby. We drove down (fast) in the Corvette on Friday after dialysis and came back on Sunday. We had a great time on Saturday going to a flag football game and a soccer game. The kids had a card and a cake for Dan's birthday (65) and we went out to eat at a fancy Italian restaurant in downtown Chicago.

So things are going well. We appreciate the way that our family and friends are hanging in there with us and we often think of your words of support.

Hi:
Great to hear that things are improving and that you are getting out and about again. hoping that things continue to improve and that the kidney search is sucessful soon.
Keep up the good work and it was super to see your face again at an outside event.
Getting ready for the Farmer's Market today so I'd better get going - it's the last month for this year.
Later,
Love,
Jamie

Hi Dan:
It's great to see that things continue to improve for you. Looks like you were having a great time at the football game.
Chicago is a fun place to visit and having grand children there would be a real bonus.

Keep improving and take care---Ed G.

Good to hear you are living life to the fullest. Good luck on getting that "right match" kidney soon.

OH----Surely NU isn't going to be as bad as the Denver Broncos this year? Hope not! YIKES!
