But as most of you know things are not the best here right now. To make things a little tricker (like they weren't already) my wife got 5 thats not a type o 5 blood clots in her left leg were she hag 3 bi passes before. Leg was going black. She called me at Dialysis and said she was not feeling well and her leg was not looking good. I said call 911 as I was hooked up for another 3 hours. She said no she would wait, I called my son and he came and got her to the hos quick. Her Doc was out of town and his partner broke his hand, so there was no vascular surgen around! So they rushed her to Boston for emergency surgery took then 5 hours but they got the blood moving and all is well!!
But her right foot is not and has not healed since before xmas. Her Doc is back and did ultra sounds on her legs and has found the no healing is due to crap blood flow so they are going to router router that leg to gert the blood moving. Hoping this will get her better.
So she has been in a nursing home now for 3 weeks, and probly will be there till mid May or till June?? So its just me the cat & dog.
Wife is *****ing that I only see her once a week, but I have not got the cash to go there any more then that. My medical pays a transport co. to pick me up for Dialysis so I don't even drive there anymore! I told her grin and bare it I am!! Of corse I look at it as a vacation from her!!LOL

The better engery that was promised me once Dialysis started has yet to happen? My protine is low and we sre working on that. I have lost so much muscle that I walk like a drunk. So I started PT today to help get a grip on it.
 
Same here MJ...wishing you all the best in getting all straightened out. I know you and wife have been through a lot.
 
Thanks guys! I go for another meeting with the transplant team on 4/22. All my doc's have been faxing all the required tests I needed to be approved. But just incase I have been asking them for copys so when I get there and they say we did not get this or that, I will whip the folder from under my arm and say here you go! My brother is going with me to get a look see of whats expected of him.
After this meeting they will look at all the tests and decide if I get approved. If yes then my brothers test will start to see if we are a match, then if so it will be transplant time.
Keeping my fingers XXX!!!
 
Hoping for the best for you and your wife MJ. You definately deserve it after all that both of you have been through. Prayers sent !!
