Faith

In many ways I think how faith and fortitude walk hand in hand. My long time work buddy and great friend gave us the good news yesterday. He has a match !!! Finally there's a donor that will give him a much needed kidney. My buddy has been enduring dialysis for quite some time. Yet if anyone needed anything he was the first to offer help. Now his kindness and fortitude are being repaid. I cry the happiest of tears while writing this. His transplant surgery is in the second week of October. I wish him a speedy recovery and all the best. And a resounding WOO HOO !!!!!!!!

    Today mom and I are taking Moo and Copper to the vet for vaccines.  I'm watching a movie having coffee while copper snoozes in between my knees.  What does Thursday look like for you?

    I've been on high dose prednisone for pneumonia, and now I am slowly weaning. But lots of symptoms I don't like having, plus overeating has put at least 10 lbs on me. The food is "loud" as the GLP-1 users refer to it.Also pressured speech. Which comes out in my posts. Sorry I posted so much. I just need an outlet for my agitated and irritable brain. Just scroll on by my posts, if they are too...
