i haven't written in a few days, so i thought i'd take the time to update a little.
so there is going to be a documentary made about the man i am donating my kidney to; the same man who produced "supersize me," will be producing this documentary (if i am not mistaken). my recipient just finished up with his interviewing for the most part, and i think i will soon be interviewed as well. i'm a little nervous about that, because i don't want anyone to think that i am doing all this for attention. in fact, that isn't even how it all happened. it all came in the aftermath of my decision to donate. but regardless, it makes me a little nervous.
secondly, today is my last day as a 22 year old!! tomorrow is my birthday (june 13th)-- and i am so excited because some of my really great friends are coming to celebrate with me for the WHOLE WEEKEND! and i am extremely excited to see them (if you can't tell already) : ) also, i got my hair cut, as you can see in the picture.
andddd i think i am getting a bonus tomorrow from work.
so i do not think this week could have been any better! next week should be just as good, except all day on the 19th, i need to collect my urine. i think it's going to be a little bit of a challenge with being at work and all, but i've already purchased a container to hold all that pee-- haha. and i plan on bringing a smaller container to work, in case i have to go here. i think the hardest part is not only having to get all my urine for the day into one container, but i am expected to keep it cold all day, too. haha. however, i think about the struggle that my recipient has to face everyday with his challenging PKD, and all of a sudden, collecting a little urine for one day is nothing. funny how a little perspective can slap you in the face and make complaints go running. ah, i love it.
don't forget to leave comments, suggestions and questions! and vote on the poll!! ------>
