Not much has happened since the last entry. Joe is still going to dialysis on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays. He completed his first week this past Saturday and...thank goodness...so far so good!
He says that he hasn't noticed any drastic improvements in the way he's been feeling lately, but he hasn't been getting sick in the mornings anymore and no longer has night sweats. I know that there have been many times he's felt very sick to his stomach and over the past week, it seems like this has diminished greatly (correct me if I'm wrong, Joe). So that's the report for now.
Joe will (hopefully) be speaking with his social worker to get him into a new center (one that's closer and better quality) and on a new treatment schedule (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)...so hopefully that will happen soon.
As for me, "life is good":
- Joe is getting good treatment and is on the path to getting a new kidney (they haven't called him for a consultation yet, but at least the ball has started to roll)
- Lucy is such a sweetheart (except when she's not, of course....ha ha)
- My job is getting a LITTLE more interesting (more on that to come)
- The weather, while hot earlier today, is now GORGEOUS as I type this on the patio
- We don't have puppy kindergarten on the weekends anymore...which means we can start camping and doing FUN STUFF!
Until next time,
XOXO

easy trick to peeling garlic. cut off the ends and hit the clove with the heel of your hand. the skin will come right off.
