| Hey everyone! Hope you all had a lovely christmas day I spent time with my family, enjoying my first Christmas in 4 years free from dialysis and the restraints that came with it. I was able to eat and drink what I wanted and had lots more energy to enjoy the day and the festivities! (I was the only family member who didn't need an afternoon nap) Click here to see some pictures of Ivy (my kidney) and Abigail's 1st Christmas. We popped open the champers, that mum and dad received 3 years ago (for their 25th wedding anniversary). They said they would save it for the first christmas after my transplant! But whilst celebrating, thoughts of my donor weren't to far from all our minds, We released a Christmas balloon in memory of my donor to let them know we were thinking of them and their family. As obviously while we were celebrating my first Christmas with my transplant, they were experiencing their first Christmas without their loved one who gave me the greatest gift of all - The Gift of Life x | |||
