KU blood test.

Hi, Just wanted to let everyone know that I had my weekly blood test this week at KU med. it was a lot quicker drive!. it was good to see some of the people at KU. my blood test showed a high level of Prograf in my blood, this may be the reason I have been a little on edge ( sorry Susan) well the results were sent to my Doctors at Barns Jewish hospital and they have lowered my prograf. maybe I wont be as jittery now. All in all I have been feeling great. Yesterday I drove to the doctor and ran a few errands on my own, if was really nice to get out by myself. I made a few visits to see some friends and that was nice. I'm up to walking for about 25 minutes at a time with no problems. The Doctor gave me the OK the walk some laps in the pool but I haven't tried that yet maybe tonight. Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers.

Cheers

Frank

  5. Am so good to hear the good progress. I am amazed on how they are able to do all that they can do with all the updated things they have to know all about the things that go on with our bodies. How amazing. Vito is ready to get going on the studing for Aflac. When you are feeling up to it let him know when you want to go on a trip to lake,you two can sit at dock and relax. It isnt as hot up there by the water. And can stay in shade. He gets bored so call him sometime. Susan you and I can go to movie maybe or something else to give the guys a break from us( or us them ) just kidding guys. We love you dearly!!!!

  7. Take it easy with this brutal heat, Frank. I bet it's so very nice to start to do things on your own. Our prayers continue to be answered! I'm playing the 10:30 Mass at Holy Cross this Sunday. I'm not sure Father Joe will be saying the Mass (I think he is but not sure). I'd LOVE to see you and Susan (yes I'm hinting - ha). Keep up the great work. You are indeed a miracle...and so is your beloved Susan. Thanks for the update...Love to you all, Susie

  8. How are you doing with the new dose of med? Hope it is making you feel better. I know the drive to KU was so much better than going all the way to St. Louis. Next time you have to go to St Louis give us a heads up and maybe we can join you. That would be fun. Have you made any laps around the pool yet? Today is SOOO nice out. Finally a break from the heat. Vito picked plums from our tree and we have LOTS so if you want some let us know and he can bring some by to you. We went to a concert last night at ameristar to see Joe Cocker. It was good but there seemed to be a lot of old people there and I wondered why????? HAA, I realized I in my own world looked like them. How its funny to think everyone else is ageing but not me HA HA I wish. John and Vito were ready to come to my shop and have me do a color job on there hair. We told them at least they didnt have the bald spot in the back which ahead of us saw plenty of that. We got a good laugh at ourselves thinking we were back in highschool.Vito has been at lake 3 times and guess who has been at lake with Joe The girl we all like YES it was JULIE. We will SEE!!!!!!! Have a good day Vito and Carla
