As many of you know by now, Kajsa received her new kidney on Saturday morning. And I am extremely happy to tell you that she is doing unexpectedly well. I’m writing this from the hospital library. Otherwise I’d include a photo. But just know that she is looking better than ever. She was permitted food this afternoon and actually ate an entire bag of crackers. This previously unheard of amount was treated by her as though it were old hat. What a goof. Also, for what it’s worth, our computer is in route to Gateway for repair. I’ve gotten all of your comments and wished quite desperately that I could respond. It is always so hearting to know that others are thinking of our family and wishing us well. I’ll have this be a short post. But know that I plan to share more of the story soon. I’ve missed you all. Thank you for being there…even when you couldn’t see that I was. Hugs to you all! |

Congratulations to Kajsa. I will be praying that she continues to do well. I didn't know that she was getting a kidney, but am happy that all went well!

Oh I am so very terribly happy I did a dance last night when I found out! *hugs* It's so wonderful that Kajsa is doing great, and you sound good too. Please update with more as soon as you can and if there's anything at all you/thefamily/kajsa needs/wants let us know - I'd love to send a care package while you're away from home!

Rowan, we are so happy for Kajsa and her family! What an awesome event! Now if you can just get your #&*!@*% computer fixed, you'll begin to realize how much your presence has been missed! I didn't realize how much I look forward to your words until they are not there. Lot's o' love from Texas, Dave

The hospital has a channel that plays Finding Nemo...all day long. They actually call it "the Nemo channel". And Kajsa loves it.
So in the spirit of where my head is, I send out this message to each and every one of you.
"You totally rock!"
I was sooooo happy to see these comments. I've missed you all. Huge hugs!!!!
