Doctor Appointment this Thursday
I completed a battery of tests to determine the extent of the kidney damage caused by the surgery I had in July. Dr. Linsey's (nephrologist) nurse called today saying that Dr. Linsey preferred to see me in his office to discuss test results and he wanted to see me this Thursday. Why in the world would he do that?! Doesn't he understand what I went through last year??? No one ever wants to hear that a doctor would rather discuss test results in person. C'mon!!! Honestly, I know what he's going to tell me. I'm certain he's going to tell me that I lost my left kidney, that it is completely non-functioning. It's not that I'm being negative; truly I'm being realistic. And I'm ok with that, it's not that bad considering what potentially could've happened. I've learned so many things in the last year and 4 months and one thing is to follow my instinct. Intuitively I know exactly what's going on with my body. But the most important thing is to always be grateful. I am so grateful to be where I am today. I got to celebrate mother's day with my family, my beautiful children. What more could a person ask?

I know you may never forgive me for never writing before but I woke up a new man this morning. I could not stop thinking about where you were with your situation and had to search. It makes me so unbelievably happy to read some of the entries you and your family and friends have written. You are truly are blessed.
Take care and hopefully I'll talk to you soon.
