Dear Family & Friends 10/3/23
Greer is doing great. He has been having two appts. weekly at the Brigham with the post team who are all great. His numbers are great. They are very pleased with Greer’s excellent record keeping. We just took a nice walk in Boston for exercise & fresh air. Admittedly he is a little bored but that’s understandable. We walk the boulevard, Rocky Neck, take drives….Lots of bonding time with Bob & I, ha ha. His appetite is good. He had lost 20 pounds and being 6’2″ and skinny to begin with he needs to put on some weight. He had the drain port taken out last week which was great. Still gets tired. Can’t lift. He wishes he could fish but no go yet.
He wrote a letter to the donor, Bob wrote a card and me, well, you can maybe guess, I wrote five pages. We put them together and brought them to the transplant office last week. They told us they would make sure our miracle amazing donor would receive them. We hope when they feel ready they will want to meet him.
His immune system is low right now for several months.
He can be with people for visits providing no one is sick in any way or been around anyone ill. They are fine with visitors in small groups if mainly outside.
No indoor venues with lots of people, no restaurants. Just mindful of staying healthy.
The team really wanted Bob & I to be currently COVID boosted plus get the Flu & RSV vaccines which we did.
My hope is to work with the National Kidney Registry possibly as a microsite coach to help people get the word out for Living Kidney Donorship.
We are grateful for all your love & support. Greers direct email is gviau2@gmail.com
I can’t guarantee he’ll respond but feel free to give him a shout out.
Love Donna
