Last week I had a check up and my lung functions were slightly worse for some unknown reason. Since I already had a routine bronch scheduled yesterday we thought we would see what the results were before wondering too much. During the procedure I had some bleeding which is always a risk when having a bronch, it did stop on its own but we had to leave the scope down my throat longer then usual. A bronch is the best way to check for rejection or infection. I am happy to report there were no signs of rejection or infection!!! I wonder if I was a little exhausted from Turkey Day. After all we hosted eleven and I was a little tired the day after.
Every year on my birthday for over the last decade I have brought toys to the Kare 11 news station and donated to Toys for Tots. This year, I have a special request. If you were thinking of donating to the cause, please either join me at the news station (exact time to be determined) on Monday, December 16th to donate as many toys as possible or arrange a time with me to meet and I can take the toys for you. Since I am fortunate enough to celebrate another birthday, this year’s donation is in honor of my donor, my hero. Please help me bring on the toys!
