It’s been a long time since I went out to walk. For awhile it was because I was at cardiac rehab. Then I had the outpatient surgery and needed the hole in my stomach to heal. I felt okay today after dialysis so I grabbed my dad and we did a small loop around the park. The park was pretty crowded since the weather was nice and it’s a Saturday. We walked 0.93 miles at a pace of 29’17”. I think my dad thought I was getting winded so he kept telling me to slow down. I also need to get a bit of exercise in while I can since I’m restarting cardiac rehab this coming Monday. UCLA Transplant Center still expects me to finish mid-March so they can clear me for kidney transplant in April. My friend/donor is currently grounded from traveling to China due to the coronavirus so we want to complete the transplant and recovery before he needs to travel again.
