  • 11/22/2010 Transplant plus 4 yrs plus 77 days!
    We are home from what is Bonnie's third trip to Boston docz since Aug 31 (Transplant anniversary). This week we are celebrating our 22 anniversary. Both of us are busy on the book and with grandparenting. Bonnie's left eye continues to heal the "defects" that probably resulted in an attack of graft-vs-host disease this summer. Her Boston surgeon put a piece a placenta on the cornea and stitched it shut the first week of Sept and again in October. Most of the October stitches have come off, but Bonnie is keeping it well gooped and taped shut in an effort to give it a couple of other weeks of rest to secure the healing. Daniel is the sick one these days with terrible hip pain and now a very bad case of the crud. And still we are happy and doing well. We had a wonderful time with the kiddos at Halloween. Bonnie made Halloween coloring books from their own past Halloween pictures (at Crayola.com). They all came to hear Bonnie preach on the 21st; they are getting more and more accustomed to being in church and liking it more. We will be celebrating Thanksgiving at Jen's house with them and the other four grandparents. We loved seeing grandson Jackson and his mom, Dr. Deb in Boston. Jackson is quite the kindergartener and athlete these days. He's quite into playing chess. The book writing is squeezed in between doc and kiddo visits and church activities. We enjoy beautiful sunsets over the ocean every night.

WONDERFUL Birthday

Pink cast THANK YOU for all your wonderful wishes ... and concerns.  I have much to say... but my new HOT PINK cast is too cumbersome this morning.  I will need to find a way to type better.

GOOD NEWS is NO SURGERY.  Great doc recommended a more conservative approach.  He set the bone and said I should wait and see how it heals.  Because of my meds, it will take more than 12 weeks to heal.  We plan to leave Tuesday, if eye doc approves.

Without asking me about color, he put on casting tape the color of my iPhone cover.  I'm totally color coordinated.

It is more painful, I think from the setting procedure, but will improve.

Stay tuned!

Bonnie
