Hooray, I am not being sick.

Hallelujah! This is the third day of not being sick, after six weeks. It was so wearing and exhausting and I have felt quite ill. I have finally found an anti-sickness pill that works and it does not make me feel spaced and drunk as some of the other pills I have tried.

We were seriously thinking of cancelling our holiday as even the flights would have been a sickly ordeal, so I and my family are all very pleased. My poor husband Rob has been very stressed about it all this week, I think he felt helpless, so he is delighted.

My eGFR is still only 18 but is very slowing moving in the rights direction.
I am seeing a renal specialist on the 22nd February, but it seems that I just have to wait for my kidneys to recover on their own. We don’t know yet how much they will recover.
I want to thank all my friends and family for being SO supportive, they have all helped me through it.
I have just cooked a pizza and my son Christopher will be pleased with me because he says I should eat charcoal to chase away the toxins in my blood, and I burnt it. I did add some tomatoes so it sort of had a healthy element.

I am doing the Cancer Research Race for Life in July if I am well enough so I shall be looking for sponsorship please if you can. Here is the link for the team page. The whole team raised over 3,800 last year and 4,000 the previous year so it would be nice to beat the previous totals.

Here is the link and I thank you in advance: http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/theperfectfriends
It feels so good not being sick.
