Three Beautiful Things 10-17-2025: Solid Lab Results, Minimizing, Bucky and The Lounge

 1. Nurse Jenn of Sacred Heart messaged me today with the good news that my lab results were stable, I'll stay the course with the medications and dosages I'm taking now, and I remain on a once a month schedule for labs. 

My labs always include tests for the BK and CMV viruses and both came up the same: none detected.

I think that means that my suppressed immune system is doing its job -- but not doing it too well. If it goes after my transplanted organ again, we'll know it's doing its job too well! 

2. Debbie and I continue to make solid progress on minimizing what material things we have in our house. Saturday (Oct. 18) we, along with Christy, will get help from Paul and Taylor. They'll use Taylor's pickup and go to the dump for us. 

3. Debbie and I stopped in at Carol and Paul's house where Taylor and Cosette's son, Bucky, was charming his grandparents, Christy, and the rest of us. It's uplifting to see Bucky growing up as a healthy dude, alert and happy with the world of love, care, nutrition, and attention he lives in. 

We went from seeing family to some socializing at The Lounge where we had fun yakkin' with different people and enjoying the good vibes of a Friday early evening in uptown Kellogg.
