Praying this is the one.  It has been hard for her the past year.  Thanks, Okarol, for letting us know.  Maybe this is the start of a new life for her and her husband.   :2thumbsup;

Wow, not excited yet I'm not, but I sure am hoping  for this call to be the one.  Paddbear needs a break and is in my thoughts.

You're not going to believe this:

Greg just posted on facebook:

"So, I'm on my way home from the hospital tonight, and I get a frantic call from OSU... they have organs for Janet and have been desperately trying to get a hold of her! How pleased I was to tell them that she already got some yesterday! I guess one way another, she was getting her transplant this weekend..."

Sounds kinda what happened to me...the day I got the call and my transplant, my only potential live donor was getting tested that day.

pity they couldn't send 'em down this way..... >:D >:D >:D >:D

Isn't that funny though to have 2 calls basically within hours of eachother. That's pretty amazing.

I wish there was a way to control Facebook updates, I never see hers unless it is posted at night. I get everyones Facebook games notices.
 
I should try to call her cell phone, they way it sounds, we may have the same experience. Also explains why she didn't answer her email..
 
I should check her page more too.
