Good morning everyone; its been a busy time. After a little R&R with my sister, I decided to work on spring cleaning. Since my mobility is limited, I decided to find things in my safe place (home) that I can do to keep moving. I cleaned out and reorganized my kitchen over the past several days. It wasn't as bad as I imagined. Are any of you doing spring cleaning?
I went to my local nephrologist yesterday and received a great report. All my numbers were good and weight is still stable. I am pushing my plate back at every meal again and my goal is to keep moving.
In response to a question about strength prior to transplant, I was very weak and still have issues with balance. I'm not sure if the balance is related to blindess or neuro. When I see primary again I will ask about an evaluation for PT.
I wish all of you a wonderful day. CK.

@chattykathy, It is refreshing to hear you speak of spending some R&R with your sister! The words alone are comforting. Sometimes I find myself justifying to others the need for me to take some R&R - just because I want to. Since my transplant, I find it mentally and physically necessary and rewarding. So good for you.
No, I am not into spring cleaning, I got lucky this year. We had major house painting done in the spring, and everything needed to be moved out of closets. So I had the opportunity to do some major clearing out of stuff. It continues to be an ongoing project.
I have just returned from my annual eval. in Rochester. And I, too, received a great report. Even got a bit of a reprimand by my kidney doctor to stay off ladders to avoid falling. again.
There has been a recent blog posted by @kequick about patients' strength and physical ability prior to transplant. You might find it interesting. http://mayocl.in/2p0TEnJ
