Just hanging out at home and resting today. My electrolytes are a tad off (high sodium
and low potassium) due to all the chemo and the side effects of the meds they
gave me in the hospital…so my “job” today is just to drink lots of water, stay
away from salt, eat bananas, and rest. J Doc said I could take potassium pills (um, no
thanks – those suckers are HUGE), but also said that I could also probably
manage it with diet, so increasing my banana, nut & OJ consumption is on
the agenda today. So far today I’ve had
a few saltines, a yogurt, a banana, glass of OJ & and a peanut butter
cookie. My MIL stocked up our fridge &
freezer with goodies before heading back to Pueblo yesterday and left some amazing
peanut butter cookies in the freezer.
Yum! (Thanks Judy)!
After the promising news yesterday about Kyle being my
potential match I am still praying that the “high resolution” tests come back
as a match! This would seriously be the
best birthday ever (next week) if that is the case!!! J I keep hanging on to the word “promising” as
that is how my transplant coordinator described the outlook. For those of you
who don’t know, Kyle saved my life once already as a kid (Ky, do you remember
when we locked ourselves in the trunk of the Maxima before that soccer game?
Stupid kids J
lol). Here’s hoping that the high resolution tests come back in our favor and
that the transplant doc at CBCI gives us the “go ahead” to move forward as
planned!!
