This last week has been a lot of work which I am hoping pays off :) We moved out of our 3rd floor apartment into a nice house with a fenced yard for Bella. It will be nice to grill on the patio as well as having a garage to airbrush in . . . oh and occasionally park the car and motorcycle. haha. I climbed up and down 3 flights of stairs about 100 + times in the last week. My legs were so sore, but the exercise was good for them. Our new place has a LARGE jetted jacuzzi tub in the master bath which I'm telling you is INCREDIBLE!
My next hurdle is getting to Pittsburgh, PA for a post transplant clinic. Everything is stable and I feel great, however, I haven't been to Pittsburgh since May 2010. . .that's almost 2 YEARS! They want me to come and visit them and I'm thinking they might do a bronch, but if there is no suspicion of rejection then they might not. I admit I miss seeing everyone there. I'm looking forward to seeing Paul, and Dr. Pilewski :) I'm also looking forward to eating at a the restaurants I LOVE there too. It's just so darn difficult to get there and for the money I could vacation somewhere a lot more fun. haha!
I still cannot believe how great I have done post transplant! 4+ years no rejection and my daily routine is so minimal. I would have never believed anyone if they had told me life would be this awesome post transplant. I didn't have "hurdles" in my recovery, I had "mountains" I had to climb. . . but I have been on top ever since. Life is awesome, It's tough sometimes but that is what makes me grow and appreciate everything I have.
