Irene’s dialysis schedule has changed.  She now leaves the house around 10.30 a.m. with a scheduled start time of 11.30 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  She hopes to be home on those days by 3 p.m.  This time slot works well; the biggest benefit is that she won’t have to drive home in the winter months when it’s dark close to 5 p.m.

Irene’s wrist continues to be well on its way to healing.  Her blood test results today were outstanding;  smiling faces in all categories…!!! 

The nausea continues to come in waves…the amyloid remains in remission.

Thanks for caring,

Irene’s birthday is Monday, August 16th, but celebrating on a dialysis day just didn’t seem as much fun as doing it today!!

We had a delicious lunch at the Santa Cruz Harbor followed by a rich, home made birthday cake for dessert made by JoAnna and opening gifts at the house … it was great to relax and celebrate LIFE together … a beautiful day on the Monterey Bay …!!!

Thanks for caring,

Dave
