@retiredteacher Carol, I am still with you. We went to visit our son last week, so I didn't get all my walks in. It's OK to take a break once in a while. Back at it this week. My last A1C was 4.9 which looks really good, but I have been told that the A1C test is not very accurate for people with chronic kidney disease. I now have 2 people who are working on becoming a kidney donor for me. If everything works out, it may be possible that my transplant will happen this summer. I want to be as healthy as possible before that time in hope that recovery after surgery will be much smoother.
