Hi guys! Sorry I have not been around and dropped off the face of the Earth, but I have had some major life changing events happen in the past month plus. October 1st, I received a kidney transplant. 2 weeks later, I went back in for 2 weeks of Thymoglobulin treatments,because my kidney was rejecting. Then on 11/17, I was placed back in the hospital because both of my native kidneys had cysts that were infected and antibiotics would never get it all. They said we had to have the 2 old kidneys removed. Scary as it was, it was the only option.
So my kidneys are removed on either the day before Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving day..this is where I start to lose track of time. Spencer came by Thanksgiving morning and even with all the drugs in my system, I told him I was scared and somethingwas wrong. He came back 6 hours later to find that they had taken me for tests. They did exploratory surgery on Saturday to see if they missed anything. Then Iwent catatonic for almost 4 days...I pretty much don't remember much until about 2.5 weks ago. I was told I went through ICU Psychosis and it took them a while to wake me up from the catatonic state.
So I am at home but still not interacting with the public. I just don't have the energy or feel good enough to do that yet. Medications are still being swapped and thongs interact, so it pretty muchmakes me not care to much...I just want to feel better.
As far as my appetite goes, I don't eat a lot. Things are either too salty or too sweet..ao we are still workng on that.
Hope you all had a great holiday season!
