Sorry it's been a while. Things are going great, tomorrow is my last plasma treatment! I'll see Dr.Ward on Tuesday,I'm looking forward to hearing what he has to say about everything! I will let you all know what my levels are this week and what Dr. Ward says! Hopefully I can get my port/catheter taken out soon! I miss taken showers I've had to take baths because I can't get my port wet...I haven't had a shower since the end of January!!

He is risen! Glory to God! Hope everyone had a blessed Easter. I was up in Mansfield at my sister and brother-in-laws place,had a great time! Things are just going great. I am down to one day a week at Good Sam. I was there this morning for my plasma treatment and don't have to go back until next Monday!!!! I'm hoping my plasma doctor (Dr. Ward) will stop my plasma treatment soon. My creatinine is around 2.89 or 2.98 can't remember...but it's still declining! Platelets are staying up...kidneys are working!

Happy Friday! God is so good! I am truly blessed and highly favored! I have been off dialysis for one week today! My blood counts came back great this morning...creatinine is going down it was 3.54 on Wednesday it is 3.33 today!!! my platelets were around 160 Wednesday and today they are 193! I am still on a somewhat strict diet no added salt,low sodium,no potassium foods or phosphorus foods and have been doing pretty well might I add which isn't easy to do since that cuts out almost everything except chicken and salad!!! Well today the nurse said that my potassium was low, when she called the doctor who I have been seeing up at good samaritan to give him the results of my blood work, she told him about it and he said I could start eating my potassium...meaning...I can now have french fries! mashed potatoes,bananas things that contain potassium!!!! Oh Happy Day!! As I am sitting here writing this blog I am also eating my lunch which consists of a whopper jr. and a small fry!!!! and it tastes soooo good! I just want to thank you all for praying for me and keeping me in your thoughts! If there is anything I can do for you just let me know. Just remember we serve a might God! And we are kids of a King! God bless you all.
