We're Back from Vacation!
Yes....we made it back. I promise to post pictures and stories of our vacation later this week. Right now, I need to catch up on laundry, Dr. appointments, and work. I took over 200 pictures!!
Where are these pictures I hear of?? OH! And the reason I got online so late tonight...I'm just finishing up watching the episode of House from tonight (sorry if I'm spoiling it for anyone) but the girl was diagnosed with Sjogrens! That is the first time I've ever heard of it besides from you.
Beth....I saw the last 15 minutes of the show. I missed it. :( BUT...the funny thing was when House was asking about if she made tears....I looked at my husband and said she has Sjogrens. I wish I knew when they were going to repeat it!
Barely 40 something mom of two little pumpkins who has Sjogrens Syndrome & facing a kidney transplant. I am not a doctor, I am just a patient going through this journey. This is my story I want to share in hopes of helping others.
*Every 90 minutes someone like you and me dies from needing a transplant. *Every 11 minutes a name is added to the transplant list. *Nearly 100,000 men, women, and CHILDREN currently await a life saving transplant. *In the U.S. more than 1 million tissue transplants are performed every year. *You can live a normal healthy life with one kidney. *You can donate part of your liver and live a normal healthy life. It regenerates! *You will forever change someone's life. You will let them spend more precious time with their children, grandchildren, and family and friends. *You will be a hero.
YOU have the Power to Donate LIFE, be an Organ and Tissue Donor.
