@emil, I am overdue for a response. I hope that you have been enjoying some activity with your 2 buddies! Are they walkers- Do you and they go for walks?
I used to do the registry tables like you have shared, too. I loved doing that! I miss doing that! And I met some very interesting people, and even heard some amazing personal stories from donor families who stopped to tell about their loved ones.
Thanks for the pictures!
I used to work in elementary and then taught in middle school special education . I retired early, before my transplant. I was nearing retirement anyway. What are you doing with your days now as a retired English professor? How long have you been retired?

I, too, send tardy reply.

But as with many of my fellow humans, my story is convoluted, moving forward, backward, laterally. As recent movies would have it, everything everywhere all at once.

I “retired” after struggling with ESLD for about 18 months. Just couldn’t keep going. I was eligible, but had planned to die with my boots on, so to speak.

Anyhow, now I just stay as useful as possible.

More another time. Today is another windy day in NM.

Keep it out of the ditches meanwhile.
