February 23rd

Hi everyone!

I will be busy next few months since Hubby & I are moving out of California to go to Washington State. Can't wait to be near my 2 sisters again. We are ready to start new life up there and go fishing, hiking, etc - gotta have a fresh new start so I may not be around much as I need to get some exercises and lose weight too.  We will be going through our storage and sell stuff next couple months then start packing and move by June. We have visited Washington few times over the years and love it. Also hubby's brothers live up there on the west coast.  Can't wait to move and start new life up there and focus on losing weight next few months so I can get back on transplant list for a kidney and get out of dialysis.

The weather has been nice here in California - sunny and lil breezy but the flowers/trees are blooming too - Spring is here? wow ugh allergy season for us allergy sufferers. I've been having sinus headaches/allergies for almost 3 weeks but seem to be getting lil better after we had a rain one day. its supposed to rain again soon.  Hope ya all safe from the blizzard in the east and central  USA. Stay warm and safe!

Take care!

Ahh March is creeping up

Ahh where did the months go? Sorry I'm a bad blogger. I've been busy psping and just had surgery yesterday Friday the 22nd to have the PD cath removed now that PD - peritoneal dialysis won't work for me cuz of scar tissues after my 2nd surgery in January. I know I should be resting but i'm feeling bored and i'm feeling fine. just lil pain in stomach area but other than that I feel just fine and will take it easy. Might want to do some psping lil later today but still taking breaks from groups at the moment and come back March 1st. Will post some tags that I have made so far in 3 groups. I'm hoping some day I'll write tuts. Hope you all had a good month of February. We celebrated my son's birthday on Valentines Day weekend and he just turned 24. Wow time flies! Bought some cupcakes from The Cupcake Lady. They just started their business here in Central Valley not to long ago and they are very popular. wow the cupcakes were yummmy! They even have facebook account and tell us when they'll be in town and what time, etc. I'll post a pic soon. Ok hope all is well with everyone! Take care. Kat

January 12th

Hello everyone! I just had minor surgery yesterday to fix the tube (for peritoneal dialysis (pd)) so it would be down and easier to drain fluids out as it did not drain 400 kg fluid last 2 sessions and pd was on hold and I was still on hemodialysis. Now the surgery is done and i'm doing great - just lil pain but not too bad but am resting and online at the moment. Thanks everyone for your prayers. So soon I will be going back to pd training and finish the last class and graduate then be able to do dialysis at home on my own time and be active in groups. I had my first surgery on Nov 1st then went through pd training for a month and half then found out fluids wasn't draining so had to have another surgery to fix the tube to go down. So next goal is graduate from pd training and finally do it at home. Oh I cannot wait! Just got tired of going to hemodialysis clinic. Rather do it at home. Ok Hope ya all had a good New Years - I sure did and spent it with hubby. Went to Olive Garden for dinner and had yummies and mudslides later that night. Wow the 2 weeks has gone by so fast. I can't wait for Valentines day cuz my son will be 24 on Valentines day - yep he's my miracle baby cuz he was born 2 months early and I was diabetic that time. Plus I celebrated 14 years of being diabetic free - I had a kidney/pancreas transplant on 1/1/99 but transplanted pancreas is still awesome and still diabetic free but unfortunately last 5 years - the transplanted kidney has been failing (which is common in transplant patients) so I've been back on dialysis for 2 years upcoming Feb 1st. I'm taking a break from groups that I belong for a week to recuperate. still lil sore in stomach area on left side and have hard time getting out of bed but i'm sure it'll get better within 2 days. glad i got the weekend to rest up.
