10 mile

Wow, it's been a couple of weeks since my last post. Not a whole lot to report in that time. I'm feeling pretty good - a little nervous, but I think that's understandable. This coming Monday, we'll go to VCU for a battery of tests to determine whether I'm fit enough to get through the transplant. Lots of fun, for sure.

I had a chance to get a good 10 mile run in last weekend. My speed wasn't great, but at least I got out there. The weather was great, though cold. I think I underestimated exactly how cold it was, because about a mile into the run, I took off the sweatshirt and hat I'd been wearing, and ran in my standard warm weather gear - t-shirt and shorts.  It was so cold I turned pink. :) All in all, a good run though.

One thing I've neglected to mention is that I'm finally getting my hair back. It was just fuzz at first, but now it's grown to the length that it's actually providing a bit of warmth. It's nice, and with eyebrows, I feel a more like a real person again. Sometimes you take the little things for granted.
