Title: Wow....it has been awhile
Post by: Victoria05202000 on June 17, 2010, 06:30:26 PM
Hi all,

It has been awhile since I have been on here. Feels good to be back. Those that remember I have Sjogrens and it affected my kidneys to the point that I am on the kidney transplant list. I am still waiting for a kidney, but doing well. It has been a long year emotionally that started off with a 3 week hospital stunt. Can't wait to catch up.

Take Care!
Victoria

Hi Victoria  :)

It's good to see you again. It's odd - but I was wondering the other day whether you'd managed to get that kidney yet. I do hope one comes up for you. You've been waiting a long time.

Take care - Scottie  :)

Great to hear from you again!  You've been on my mind a lot recently and I was wondering how you were doing.

Why are you still waiting for a kidney?  Wasn't there a possibility of having a kidney from a co-worker's sister or is my memory playing tricks?

I remember that lots of people were rallying round to help.  Did the fundraising go well? 

I've not been very active on the boards for the past few months because I've had some extra health issues to deal with, starting with a bad reaction to Cytoxan and leading to planned heart valve replacement surgery.  That hasn't happened - yet - but I'm functioning on low batteries!

Hope to hear more about how you're doing.

Take care - Chickpea

Hello Victoria, Well must say you  sure brought Chickpea out of her closet!      ;)   Chickpea, have thought of you so often and again read your pm to me a couple days ago and thought the time was nearing to check on you.

Can see by all replies to Miss Victoria, You're a KEEPER!!!    ;D  I have not had the pleasure of visiting with you on the boards ... Please keep us posted!!!

Victoria,Wow, I have thought of you a couple times lately I just figured that you had the transplant and were recovering. Turns out you are just recovering. Hope that you can hang in there and have halfway decent health. Will continue to think of you and keep you in my prayers for a new kidney---fast!!! Irish ;D
