I’m still in recovery mode now. Currently, Philip and I are in our separate beds in the hotel trying to find something interesting on tv. There’s still some pain and some nausea, but at this moment, I’m feeling pretty good. Last night was rough. I woke up in the middle of the night feeling pretty awful, and I guess getting out of bed was a little too much for me. God bless Philip for being such an amazing caretaker. All it takes from me is a pathetic “Hey…baby?” and he’s out of bed in a flash asking me what I need and grabbing a trashcan and a cold washcloth for my face. I’m not really sure what I’d do without him, but I’m glad I don’t have to know.
I got to meet my recipient which was a pretty amazing experience. She had a lot of visitors which was slightly overwhelming to Philip and I who have only been with each other in this whole process. I came and they immediately gave me some gifts and some cards. It was wonderful. I still don’t feel deserving, but I definitely appreciate all the kindness coming my way.
Hopefully she’ll be released today and continue to feel better and my kidney will be as good to her as its been to me for the last 25 years!
