 :boxing; We are ready to kick some hospital butt...

We are blessed very very blessed, because we have to amazing parents that are a match with both of us, my twin brother and I.
Tomorrow Tuesday,16,2013, my mother and I were scheduled to go for a last testing and check ups, and hopefully we have a date set for the transplant to begin.
I have to say, it brings tears to my eyes, just to imagine my lovely mother, be in a hospital bed for me.
My dad has to loose 10 pounds, because his blood sugar is a little high, and my twin brother, just had a Varicela shot, so we have to wait a month for the other shot. When both of them are healthy and ready to go, we will find out the transplant day.

Im praying that tomorrow we get a date set. I just want to live a normal life, at least for a few years   :yahoo; :2thumbsup; :cheer:

Fantastic news.  Having had a transplant (and waiting for another) I can attest to the fact that it will change your life for the better.

Best wishes.
