it’s been a while since I’ve updated, so I thought I’d do it today.  

the kidney is working well and the doctors are happy.  They have released me from quarenteen, however I still need to stay careful as my immune system is and will remain suppressed for the rest of my life.   

I’ve also shifted to seeing the doctors and having my blood tested every two weeks as opposed to every week.  

I’m starting to look for work, so wish me luck with that.  

Today, Bear and I went on a hike at Mt Charleston.   It was a 4 mile round trip with a 1400 ft elevation change.   It was to Mary Jane Falls and we did great!   It was so nice to get out and be able to do this without having any repercussions from the kidney.  Just four months ago I would have been able to walk to the trail head let alone make the hike.   I feel so lucky to have more time to enjoy life.  

thanks for all the well wishes and prayers.  They worked.  

I’ve put some pictures below.  

love to all
Alex
