@kathycaudle, How's it going for you?
I hope that you have avoided any ER visits that we transplant recipients sometimes need. Over the years, I am pleased with how much my local hospital has learned about transplantation! For me, when I say I'm a transplant patient, they immediately take action. It didn't used to be that way. Fortunately, though I have not needed ER care for a while 😀.

Have you been able to see the grandkids? Do they live nearby?

Hi Rosemary...I'm doing well. I was suppose to have surgery on my right hand Jan 21, but tested positive for covid on the 18...so surgery has been postponed to Mar 3. My time with covid was pretty mild from others bots....sore throat,stuffy nose, no fever but extreme fatigue...still dealing with that. My tx team had me get the monoclonal infusion on Jan 24...so far so good.
My hernia, my melon is still there...I've decided to live with it as is until I can no more. And live with it is exactly what I intend to do..not stupidly, but now that I've had covid & survived, I'm not gonna restrict my life.
Thanks for caring & checking on me💚
