It is a difficult thing to have to do fundraising, but as most of you may know, it is costly after a transplant. I have pretty good insurance with a Cigna Medicare plan. Just this year, as with many insurance plans, coverages decreased and co-pays increased. I am thankful though for having medical coverage. We decided to have a Virtual Dinner because so many of our family and friends are scattered throughout the United States. This way, if they so choose, they can participate with out having to travel...We would love to see everyone though! So if you are able to participate in this fundraiser, we would appreciate it. Thank you so much.
Well, it is getting pretty hot here, most days the temperature is still under the "normal" temps. We have even been able to keep the doors and windows opened. We still have the real hot months to look forward to. Last year, we spent some of the summer in Ohio, the temperatures were not as high, but the humidity was real high. I have been in Arizona for 30+ years so the heat hasn't really ever been a factor for me. Until after my transplant. It seems as though the summer heat just drains me now. So, we are enjoying the cooler temps for now, they will be gone before we know it. I just realized it sounds like complaining, but it is not. It is just a fact of my life now. Yes, my life, I am alive and am so very thankful for that. There is not a day that goes by I don't think of my donor and their family. What a blessing they are to me. Thank you to them and all organ and tissue donors.
