Well my blood test was ...............very good! So despite some kidney pain over the last 2 months it seems all is well. When I stopped dialysis my kidneys were working at 15% they are now working at nearly 24 %. It is a slow but steady improvement. Also my potassium and phosphates were both in the normal level for kidney patients which is great as I am not so strict with my diet now. I still restrict lots of things but I don't avoid them altogether. This is obviously working. I occasionally have chocolate, tomatoes, cheese, nuts, raisins, bananas, granary bread, orange juice, melon, potatoes,  etc.... I was struggling to cut them all out altogether. It seems a little is ok. (I obviously don't have them all on the same day).

Today - flowers at church and ladies who lunch and bible study. Chloe is home so I am hoping to spend some time with her. Tomorrow - an early start with Women's Breakfast.

On Monday Paul will hear if he will be made redundant. His company  has to make 600 people redundant and Paul is in a group where 1 in 3 will go. We are praying it won't be him. He has been waiting to hear for about a month and they keep changing the day when they will tell them - ho hum!

I hope you all have lovely - wet - weekend plans !
