My Guys!

To those of you who have kept up on Derek and Frankie's condition.
I just wanted to let everyone know that it has been 5 months now since the kidney transplant. Everything is going so well-Thank God!
Derek does lab work every week and UCSF is gradually tapering him off the high dosages of medication. Derek feels very much alive again, Thank You God & Frankie! He's slowly turning back to himself again as regards to his energy level, eating abilities, social level, and of course his temperament. lol I'm so grateful to have my old Derek back!

Frankie is doing awesome too! He was just over the other day and looks just as wonderful as he is! Frankie says he feels no different...Other than he swears he gave Derek his "skinny kidney" for reasons I won't go into! lol

Frankie on the other hand immediately went back home a few weeks after his surgery to No. Carolina to visit his parents and family...So there's been No stopping Frankie.
Since the transplant the guys have already done their Disneyland trip together and had a Wonderful time! Gee, who wouldn't at the happiest place on earth!

Frankie works at Tiffany's in Monterey and What a Small World It truly is! He waited on None Other than Derek's Transplant Surgeon Dr. Nancy Asher in his store! It was quite an honor and experience for Frankie.

Derek is now planning our annual Halloween Costume Party. Derek being the Mastermind that he is at decorating new themes and so forth, keeps trying to out do his previous year. So let's see what he dreams up this year!

That's the Latest and the Greatest news today.
Thanks for your continual support and concerns!
Love all who care,

Mother Nancy
