So sorry to hear you are having a relapse. Hopefully it will be short and the recovery will be complete. Consider a second opinion, even the best of experts can miss something. Your writing is lovely as usual! I read this and when I closed the window, my tablet showed me a memory photo… of my friend and I with your strawberry basil pie that we made together! May you get back to doing the things you love soon!

It’s so good to hear your voice. But I too am very sorry to hear your kidneys are misbehaving. I wish for you clarity in the opinions of the medical experts who treat you, and a path forward to total healing, and then resumption of the traveling lifestyle you Love so much. Until then, what can we do for you? It would be nice to help you pass the time while Jose is on tour. I can only imagine he worries about leaving. I wish peace for both of you.
