I hope you feel better BullDinkie

Here's BullDinkie's post from yesterday in her happy birthday thread:

"I spent the day at dialysis.when I left my blood pressure dropped to 80 .way too low.so when I finally made it home,everybody was waiting with gifts,cake flowers.I also got a pair of topaz& diamond earrings.I ate went to bed at 8.I felt bad.I feel like a zombie when blood pressure is that low. "

I'm sorry you don't feel well. Forgive me, but I don't remember what you have told us about being on a transplant list. When you feel up to it would you please update us on this? Hugs to you Kim.

Kim, I hope your feeling better today. That is no way to have to spend your birthday. I hope your feeling better soon.

Yes...I hope you are feeling better too...

How about , lets have another celebration today .....I'll bake a cake (chocolate?) and decorate it. I haven't decorated a cake in awhile.

What color flowers do you want on your cake?

Since I'm such a cheapy....I'll make you one of my beaded book marks as a gift. (I'd really send you one if you'd send me your address)

So happy birthday...

Anyone have any candles or ice cream they want to bring to the party?

It troubles me to see people fall, but it's certainly no surprise with their exaggerated way of walking and the dangerous shoes. Models probably fall more often than most people. Hilarious, not really!

I do not think it will start a war...just maybe dirty looks and cold shoulders. The funny thing is that the kids go to private school and the family walks past our house every Sunday to attend church services. You would think they are decent people.....but I feel like that is all a mask for the demons they are raising! On the 4th our town had fireworks at the park we usually go to. We walked since it is only a few blocks. On the way home they were in front of us walking. The bigger troublemaker of the two boys stopped to tie his shoe (I think so we would catch up). Well we passed the boys and their father (their mom did not go to fireworks-she does not work or anything?). When we got up to the street to cross there was lots of cars leaving the fireworks. They all rushed out in front of cars and crossed so we ended up behind them again. Well when we passed their house (it was almost 10pm) the dad had gone inside and left the two boys outside hanging out in the driveway! It was like he was asking for trouble.

Where is Bull Dinkie?

I tried to do some detective work today. I wish I knew which town she lived in. I kind of know where it is, but there are a lot of towns in that area. I made a couple of calls to a company that might know something, but I got a recording both times. I left a message the second time. I don't know if I'll hear back from them or not. Linda

I feel better today,but I also have dialysis today sooooooo its never ending it seems.It seems theres soo many here with health problems.
Thank you for thinking of me.
I amnot on the list yet.But if a family member or someone else were to donate a kidney I could have transplant now.No one in Immediate family can donate.So I wait.The dr said if no family member donates its a 3-4 year wait for a kidney,just not sure I can wait 3-4 years,Im having anxiety attacks at dialysis now.I lose my breathe and they need to put oxygen on.Its tough.Ive been there now it will be 9 mo.
