My sister is at the hospital as I type this. She's meeting with the surgeon and a whole bunch of other people today! She had tests done last week. So.. Hopefully today we will have a date set for transplant! I am extremely nervous and excited! My mom is also doing a bit better. She had to have her lower teeth pulled as they were infected. She will be getting dentures in 2 weeks. That was why she was in such bad pain. Hopefully I will be posting my transplant date later today.

Don't be nervous (although it's hard not to be), but be extremely excited! I'm crossing my fingers for you! I need to go look to see if you already posted your transplant date....
