Sunday night at 9. Released from hospital Friday.

feel great. Keeping up on pain pills every 3 hours.

Will be at Marriott residence Inn in Murray by transplant holiday for 4-6 weeks. Basically stuck in hotel for 3 weeks since I have no auto immune system.

Funny things at hospital. They now call me Mr Catastrophe. Flooded two bathrooms with a shower. First room flooded shower, room, and hall way. Second room they stationed a CNA outside my bathroom door during my shower. Shower still flooded. Built a wall of towels and blankets in front of the door. Wore my water sandals. Water got 2” deep. They gave me four towels to dry off and after using each one I threw on the floor to help dip up the water.

One day I sponsored an hour long dance off in my room. The nurses , CNAs were good sports and participated.

Anyway did not glue me up. I have 35 staples. Not looking forward to having those yanked out in three weeks.

Feeling good. Taking pain meds constantly.

Called my new kidney Luke after Luke Skywalker. He carried a light saber, was not afraid to use it and he saved the galaxy. Also I rub my kidney and remind him, “Luke I Am your Father!”

Anyway. Hate to say this but a kidney transplant is expensive. I setting up a fund next week for assistance. I am only asking for $10 donation so it doesn’t effect you or your families budget. Watch for it next week if CougarBoard allows it.

Thanks and go BYU. Ruts on Utah.
