I have another meeting with another Surgeon on Tuesday. After that I should know how soon before I will be doing dialysis at home. My diet would become less restrictive when that happens. The only thing I would have to worry about is salt.
January 18 I have a meeting with the transplant folks to start my transplant evaluation. They will do blood tests to figure out my perfect match, map out my arteries and veins, as well as figure out if I am mentally and emotionally stable. About a month after that, I will be officially placed on the transplant list and they will begin to test the now 10 people that have voluntered to see if they are a match, beginning with family. I figure the earliest would be April for a transplant but this summer is more realistic.
Words cant adequately express the gratitude I feel to the 10 people that have volunteered. I have told them all thanks but that doesnt seem to be enough. Anyway, thank you again to those people and to all of the people that are sending me their support, encouragement, and prayers.
