I have known for a while now that I have a donor who is a match. She has gone through all the physical test... blood tests....everything. She has been cleared to be my donor at Covenant Hospital in Lubbock, Tx. I am already on the transplant list at Baylor in Ft. Worth and Baylor in Dallas, but they are slow as malaises, so I also went to Covenant to be listed and to have my donors tested. I did bloodwork while I was there, but they didn't need any other tests. They ordered all my records from Baylor. Anyways, this Tuesday, Feb 19th they are taking me to committee to see if they accept me. I don't see why they wouldn't, considering I am already accepted at Baylor...... but I am asking for prayers. If they do accept me, then my tentative date for transplant is March 27th. I am so excited I cant see strait! I haven't mentioned this before for fear of jinxing it..... but I figure your prayers will trump the jinx :)
Thank all of you for your prayers.

How exciting this all is. Just knowing that you have a living donor and that most is in readiness is a powerfully good thought. It sounds like all is pretty much in order and now all you have to do is to get that formality out of the way. I'll be heading upstairs soon and you will be in my prayers tonight. Good luck on Tuesday, I know it will go well for you.

Donnia - I missed this thread! That is wonderful news! I'm excited for you as well! You should get a call today from your coordinator telling you the "committee" accepted you! Why wouldn't they? :thumbup;
March 27th, huh? I'll mark that on my calendar. My brother is admitted tomorrow morning for the remainder of his testing. Provided he makes it through without getting bumped, they'll send his info to the "committee" next Wednesday. We hope to schedule our transplant the same week as yours. That would be so cool if we transplant on the same day!
Good Luck to you and your donor! I'll be thinking about you and praying for you!! :thumbup; :thumbup; :thumbup; :thumbup;

To day is the day.....*** taps foot**** We are waiting for good news. :waving;

Just to let you know you have a "friend" nearby in Ft. Worth (Blue Mound) area. Sending good vibes your way. I will light a candle for you and the others here at church this Sunday.

Thanks to everyone for the prayers and good vibes. I talked to the coordinator and she said they go to committee at noon (it is 12:14 right now). She said it takes about 1 1/2 - 2 hours. She said I will be her first call so she should be calling me by 2:00. AGGHHHHH I just can't wait!!!
Kellyt....Good luck to you and your brother, I will be praying for you!!! Where are you going through? That would be cool if we had our transplants on the same day!!!!!
-
Donnia and Kelly, best of luck to both of you. :bestwishes;

My caring thoughts and prayers are with you both - Donnia and Kelly. Please forgive me - I have been slightly dysfunctional recently, but i think you understand. I am very happy for you and hope that everything works out well. :grouphug;

Thanks everyone.
Donnia - if everything goes as planned I'll transplant at Christa Santa Rosa Transplant Hospital in San Antonio. I just made "the list" last week, so I'm not sure if I'll multi-list or not. I'm considering listing in Dallas if I don't have to redo all my evaluation testing. We'll see how it goes.
Again, Good Luck! I look forward to hearing hour good news! Will this be your fist transplant?
