Life at Home


Drew and I are so grateful Drew is at home. Drew's brother Casey has been driving Drew into Charlotte for his Plasma Pheresis every day, which has been a huge help. Drew's creatinine has been slowly dropping which is such good news. He is also receiving a drug called Rituxan which will prevent his body from making more antibodies against his (formerly my) kidney.

Drew is in a kind of isolation, he can't do any gardening (what I call playing in the dirt). The yard and inside plants are in sorry shape because of this. Drew moved several of his inside plants outside the 2 days he was at home before his bowel obstruction. It had turned warm and was raining, Drew likes to put his inside plants outside when it rains. I totally forgot about his plants when the snow came a couple of weeks ago. You can tell from the picture what happened. These Jades were propagated from a very old Jade plant I had before we were married. Luckily we still have the original Jade plant.

Our neighbors and friends from the gym where Drew works out have been bring dinner every night. We have been getting wonderful food, it has been awesome.
