Guest guest Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Hi all, Wow, there are so many new people that most of you don't know me so I thought I would pop in and introduce myself. I have known and been friends with Bobby since I found out I had Cirrhosis (alcoholic) and would need a transplant a year ago. He has been a wonderful friend and constant support as well as the rest of the members here. The reason I don't post much here is that I have learned a lot regarding my disease, am listed at one facility and currently working to be listed at another. My MELD score has been as high as 37 and is currently 22. I feel very good considering and am very active in 2 local support groups as well as the moderator of our yahoo board and my own personal blog. I do read most of your posts and stay up to date. Let me just say that this is a great resource for you to learn about your or your loved one's disease and gather support and strength as you go through this journey. Hang in there! If you would like to look at my blog the address is http://reallife-withus.blogspot.com Bobby said it would be fine to post it for you all. (Isn't his blog the best!) I also would like to ask for prayers for 2 friends of mine in ICU at Loma . One is Tim who has been hospitalized for months now waiting for a liver and is very, very ill. Pray that he gets his much needed liver soon. And , a high school principal who recieved his liver last week but is having difficulty with the recovery. Both had/have MELD's over 40 and are very sick. God bless you all, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
