Well, this is the week I have to try to switch my dialysis days.
You see, usually that's Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. Anyone who's known anyone that was on hemodialysis is probably familiar with how that works.
My graft surgeon (yes, I'm going through with the pre-op appointment, even though I feel like chickening out of the surgery on the 28th) only sees people in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. To me, that seems ridiculous, since I'm sure I'm not the only dialysis patient who's faced with having to switch my schedule around because of that.
The other thing is, I have something else going on this coming Saturday. So I really have my heart set on having my dialysis changed to Monday/Wednesday/Friday for this week--if only I can do that. And the following Sat., 24th, I'd like to switch that to Friday the 23rd.
Damn!! Too much schedule-changing. Oh, wait. Hang on a sec. WHEW! OK. Thank goodness I can still take my cat Tony to the vet on the 21st. I'm sooooooooooo tired of not being able to do other things without going all-out to change my schedule around. Geez!
On the upside, I may possibly have found a donor. It sure would be nice if that works out. I'll keep you posted. It would be verrrry nice if that works out so that I can get a transplant instead of going through with the graft thing. I'd truly NOT be looking forward to having two needles in my arm three days a week!
Thanks for reading! I'll keep you posted. Meanwhile, hang in there for me! Love ya!
