December still mystifies me. Everything happened so fast with his kidney going downhill. But by the grace of God and I'm sure through prayer, we got Clayton's kidney under control. The whole thing is still kind of crazy to me. The doctors were all "transplant or major surgery in the next 6 months" until they weren't. Now they are all "monitor and wait". So we are. Thankfully we are finally getting a break from co-pays and hospital fees for a couple months. We get to monitor his blood pressure from home and do labs locally through the summer. Then August begins the mad dash again. We have to do all new tests on his kidney and all new cancer scans. September will be Texas. October is Nemours Orlando (prep appointment for future kidney stuff there). November is always a busy month. Last but not least, December will be a stent replacement. And all of that is if nothing goes wrong. No respiratory issues or decline in kidney function or reaction to sedation or dental work or unexpected procedure or hospital visit of some kind. That's the schedule barring any speed bumps. And well our life wouldn't be our life if we didn't have speed bumps. They just seem to happen. So we are going to try really hard to enjoy the next couple months of quiet.
Trying to do all the fun stuff with Clayton we can!
And we can't forget the pup...
