A nice visit from Mom, Susan, Mickey* and Lexi!

It was a nice surpise to have Mom, Susan, Micky and Lexi come down on the train to visit with me on Thursday.

Kidney Update and a visit from Sharon

I will have 2 more such sessions over the course of the next month, and then I would be done with the intravenous medications. It was good having Sharon down to help me get settled. I threw this page up quickly so that I could be more detailed in my status. Over the next day or so after work as I start to catch up I will be making it more blog like so you can post here as well. Thanks for all the support. Photos:
