I met up with Dr. Twenty Cats yesterday. As always, we had quite a bit of catching up to do over lunch. After we ate, we spent a little time mall-ratting at our usual haunts, including the obligatory trip to Littman Jewelers. I think it’s probably a sign that you visit a store way too…
Call from Big City Hospital
I just got off the phone with the liver transplant coordinator at my hospital. She wants me to come down for a full re-evaluation and work-up. She feels it would be to my advantage to put me on the “needs” list for livers. The “needs list” allocates livers that are less than prime to people…
Snow, To Do’s, and Books
This morning [insert word appropriate for polite company that means “sucked” here]. We got our predicted four to five inches of powdery snow overnight. It was the kind of wispy stuff that you shovel with a broom. The problem is, as fast as you swept it away, the winds blew more in. In fact, it…

I understand that this one traces back to Jade. So here we go: The Eighties Pop Act Test deems me: 45% Eighties Pop Act You are Phil Collins: When your friends were with you, you were the coolest, but on your own, you were a simpering crybaby. Go listen to Genesis. Wait just a goll’darn…
Me, eBay, and Inevitablity
Friday. Was there ever a word with such a mellow, soothing sound? Say it slowly, drawing out that first syllable. Friiiiiii – day. Was there ever a day so concerned with your well-being? Friday. I day. My day. This is not a Monday moan-day, or a Tuesday used-day. Yeah, Sunday may be fun-day, and Saturday…
Blue is the hue.
OK, the trend stops here. I’m not sure I agree with this assessment, but the important thing is Slipperman will definitely NOT get the same color I got. No way, no sir, no how. Didn’t I take this one before some time ago???? Red: 7/100 Blue: 25/100 White: 12/100 Yellow: 1/100 Take the Color Code…
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.

Great letter. You have always had a way with words.
Beautiful…

Beautiful.
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.
