I got the phone call on Friday that I have been approved for a lung transplant! I am not on the active calling list yet. I wanted to wait and make the announcement when that happened, but it is taking a little while and I wanted to let you all know. They are still awaiting financial approval. When that happens I will get a call and have to give them a few numbers where I can be reached. This is for when the lungs come in. They no longer use pagers if the person has a cell phone. I was just told to keep it on, charged and with me at all times. Right now I am in the process of getting setup with some organizations to fly me over to NYC when the call comes in. I have a window of time to get there (which I am not sure exactly what that time is yet) so I am working on those arrangements. I will post again when I find out more.
Doctors and medications have been my normal since I was born. My whole life I have been faced with challenges and have had to constantly adapt to them. I don't know anything different. This does not slow me down and I continue to go through my life with a positive outlook. I have a supportive family, irreplaceable friends and my amazing other half, Jason. Between them and my determined personality I am ready to take on anything that comes my way.
