So I got the call today from my transplant coordinator that I am reactivated on the list.  I had been active since late July and had transferred all of my waiting time from Northwestern to Wisconsin.  But then my heart attack rolled around and derailed things for a bit.  I still accrued the time, just in a hold status so no calls. 

It's getting more real now....guess I better pack a bag and keep it ready! ;D

Hopefully, it won't be too long.  I already got one call while I was on hold because the right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing.  So based on that, I am hopeful that I am moving up in the world.   :2thumbsup;

Oh, this is fab news.  I'm so damn excited for you!  I can't wait!  Ooooh, now I'm all jittery.
