Thinking of you Ollie

Brengirl - It'll come when it comes and not a moment sooner! So don't worry about it.
Ollie sorry for the quick hijack of your thread

Hi Ollie, really pleased all is going well.

How is the gardening / cooking book or novel coming along? Thought you might have finished it by now?

You sound really positive Ollie, it must be a huge release to be off dialysis and I bet not having to restrict your fluid has had a big impact. It must be rotten not being paid when you're off sick, hope you're insured.

Wonderful news Ollie!
A dunk in the bath eh?...must have been brill!

Not insured, but I've saved quite a bit and don't have any dependants so it's easy enough.
Yes, nice to be off a fluid restriction, but now I'm on a fluid compulsion! I have to drink at least 2 litres of water a day. Something to do with it being bad for transplanted kidneys to get dehydrated.
It's not tough drinking that much, it's just keeping track.

Buy a 2 litre bottle of water from the supermarket. If you prefer tap water, then empty it and re-fill from the tap. Keep it in the fridge and pour as needed (seems easier than making a list of each and every drink you take during the day). Good luck with it, and so glad you're on the mend.
