Six months and all is well!

Yes, Friday was the six month anniversary of Stephen's transplant. He went to Michigan for the weekend and returns home tomorrow. I celebrated with friends and held down the fort here at home.

Stephen is very happy to be working again. Thank you all so much for supporting him (and our family) through the challenges of the last year.

I had a nice long talk with Michael this morning. He reports that he is feeling well, too. We hope to see him before the year is out.

I also want to take this opportunity to thank all of you who were able to support our Walk for PKD team this year. We had twenty walkers on our team and an absolutely beautiful day for walking along the waterfront in Yorktown Virginia. Despite the economic turmoil this fall, we were able to raise over $17,000 for PKD research and education.
