And the Balls Come a Tumblinâ Down
I had my first treatment for CTCL for 2011 today. Hard to believe Iâve been doing this for three years now. The drug I have to take before getting the light treatment sensitizes me to ultra-violet light for 24 hours so I end up either having to wear weird goggles to help prevent cataract formation…
State of the Liver
Today was my annual transplant check up at Big City Hospital. I walked the distance between the train station and the hospital, perhaps a dozen city blocks. My legs were burning by the time I got to the hospital. Being a stay-at-home slug has done nothing for my physique. The walk was even worse back…
Survey and Dismay
OK. Since this is shorter than some of the others have been, I’ll do the another survey. I’m a sucker for surveys, it would appear. 1. Open up your CD player. Which CD player? The ones at work and home are empty at the moment. My car CD player is a stackable six, with a…

One Nation, Under God
Welcome to my Thursday. I’ve been busy helping visiting researchers do a prevalence study. It’s been a lot of time and not much work. The data collection is going smoothly. Too smoothly. I guess planning is everything, but I’ve been standing around doing little. Once we got things set up and going, I largely became…
To Elf With Attitude.
Give me credit: I smelled the vegemite. Let’s start slow with this, eh?
this is the kind of letter that is tough to write, but you pull it off. too bad they can’t know more about you.
I think that’s pretty good. I tried to read it from the recipient’s perspective. I think that you waited until this time of year is actually very good. The first holiday season after losing a loved one is very difficult, and this letter might make it easier. The only thing I might even suggest to add is that you are taking exceptional care of their child’s liver, that you don’t drink and are careful about medication that could damage it. They might feel better to know that the doctors are unsure as to why your original liver failed but that you were not engaging in behaviors that could have put you at risk. Oh, and you could add that it is working normally.
The above are just suggestions, and those particulars are not necessary, I suppose, but if it were the Kid, I would feel better to know that whoever got his organs would take good care of them.

What a beautiful letter.
I would not change a thing.
Telling them about your past health would only make them sad and they do not need to know that.
You did an excellent job telling them just what they needed to know….that you are leading a ‘normal, healthy and happy life’ once again, thanks to their ‘decision’.
That will make them ‘happy’ knowing that they did they right thing. Also knowing that part of ‘them’ is living on, in you, is comforting to them, alone.
Again….
What a Beautiful letter.
Love,
Honey
P.S…
You letter also tells them…
What a ‘Beautiful person’ you are.
I think it’s a great letter. I think you did a great job showing how much a difference it has made to your life. I’m glad you were able to find the words.
