This time was not the time.
This time we hoped, but it was not the time
This time we looked toward the future, but it was not the time
This time we had a crazy adventure, but no good news
This time we were told 3 things….
1. You must loose 90 lbs
2. You are not “sick” enough
3. You cannot be put on the national transplant list
PKD stinks! Kidneys 22% functioning right now…. not sick enough??! His kidneys weight 40 lbs together… cannot get rid of that weight….
This time there was little hope.
New Goal: Loose more weight…..Get sicker?
This time was not the time 😦
Maybe not THE time, but sounds like such a HARD time. I’m wanting the end of March to come so we can know how this turns out. Or maybe it hasn’t resolved and we won’t know anything!

Wow. This sounds so discouraging. I was reading the headings at the top. You obviously have a choice about being strong or giving up, but I see you choosing strength. I wish I had some magical words of encouragement.

What a positive outlet in your writing. I love your repetition of “This time” and pray for “the right time”. Good luck!

Argghhh– how frustrating. I agree with Carol, this is a HARD time. You’re managing to keep your head above water it seems. Your writing on this topic is great- I just wish the topic didn’t exist for you!

Your writing touches me. I feel your frustration growing. How can they not see what you see? How can it not be time yet?

Well, it appears that I’ve come in “in the middle of something” based on some of the other comments. I need to go back and read to “catch up”. What I can tell is that you and your loved one are navigating some very tough “time”s. I can also tell that you are frustrated, irritated, but also determined and resolute. I can tell that you are a powerful writer, and I’m betting an equally powerful person. I will be praying for you, and for YOUR time to come soon.
