Thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has been so supportive through all of this journey.  Whether it's kind thoughts, sending those good vibes, sending home meals, rides, whatever it has been, it's made a difference.  We still have a ways to go, and we promise to keep you updated as the journey continues.  Thank you!  Irena (aka Iggy)

Learned some interesting things during our tour of the hospital ward. Foothills Hospital transplant unit doesn't believe isolation improves outcomes. So as long as I stay healthy I can have 'healthy' visitors. When I leave the unit I have to wear a mask but the hospital encourages patients to get a day or even overnight pass whenever I'm healthy enough. Foothills is known in the world as the hospital that will 'transplant on the sidewalk' because of this policy. Probably helps that it's so cold no bug can survive outside!

Almost finished the myriad of tests. Only 4 more to go before hospital admission on Dec. 7.
