Hey everyone!

I got the green light to go on a transplant list. Today I gave blood for retypization and on Thusday, I will give blood for typization. Then I'll have to wait for the test result and I will be on the list. The tx coordinator said, I will be on the list till 20th November. Yeah  :bandance;.

My Potassium and Phospor levels are in range. Still very active, working full time and doing many sports.
