While 2014 started out quite rough, I must say it is ending
on a very good note.
January 9th was when Jason first experienced
seizures at home. While at the emergency room I called home to check on Jim and
he was having difficulty breathing. Called for an ambulance and he too was in
the ER.
Thus began our trek of many difficult months of pneumonia,
crippling gout, blood clot on lungs, peritonitis, rehabilitation, food poisoning, bursting cysts, uremia, hemo–dialysis,
and then finally on September 4th....Jim’s kidney transplant.
Since then Jim has been feeling amazing. He is a totally
different person than he was this time last year. While 2014 was a rough year,
it’s ending on a high note.
2015 will be amazing. We no longer will take for granted the
simple things we liked to do before like traveling, going to the lake, fishing,
hunting.... just normal things. Jason is feeling fine. Had additional tests and he will continue to be on his anti-seizure medicine for now.
Once again we thank everyone for all the support and prayers
we had last year, for everyone who participated in the kidney walk which we
raised over $3,000, for all the encouragement we needed when things looked so
glum. For all who came and celebrated
Lindsay and Matt’s wedding. Something that was so special to see Jim walk Lindsay
down the aisle.
Here’s to 2015.....
