Well I just got a letter from my insurance company a couple days ago, and I got approved for transplant evaluation! Now the next steps are actually passing the evaluation and I think I will since I have no other health issues besides my kidneys, I don't even have diabetes! Also need to find a donor, I prefer a living donor but if I have to get one on the list that's ok too. Could I be the next one of I hate dialysis to get a transplant? Stay tooned to find out!

Fantastic.  Just remember the wheels seem to move awfully slowly - don't give up - keep pushing.
