What a Week....

It's been a week.  A week of good news and potential great news.
The good news is that I saw my transplant specialist and was given a clean bill of health.  My kidney transplant is functionally well (praise the Lord!) and the breathing issue and facial tick that goes with it are due to a magnesium deficiency.  I can deal with that!  Magnesium supplements added to my list and things will be back to normal in no time.  Yay for the good news!

The potential great news is...well I'll tell you next week when we know for sure!

The boys and I attended my great nephew's 8th birthday party yesterday. What a great time we had.  My sister helped me with the little one and we got to stay for the whole party except for 20 minutes, when the little one was cooked.  He needed to go have his nap.  But there were about 20 boys and girls in the local rec centre and a great time was had by all.

Leaving the party I had a bit of a rough moment when my oldest didn't see my hand in the car door and closed it on my fingers.  I screamed for someone to open the door and when the panic died down, my fingers were freed and nothing was broken!  My poor little man felt so bad.  But I assured him I wasn't upset with him in anyway and I have to learn not to put my fingers in the door!  He's agreed to look before he closes the door now, too.  Unfortunately, my little one got very scared with Mama screaming the way I was and I had to reassure him that I was OK.  My sister inspected my hand and I assured her that I was fine too.  So except for that, it was a wonderful Saturday.

Well this is a short entry but I'm tired (magnesium, sodium, and iron deficiencies) will do that to a person, so I'm going to sign off and go to bed early and await the arrival of my favorite day of the week.  MONDAY!
