I have Transplant Clinic on Oct 5th at 8 AM.

scheduled for 5:30 AM on October the 10th.

I will be at the

Good luck Leanne, I will be thinking about you. It has been 10 months

since I had the tp- auto ict and it has been a miracle. Of course I

have had a few bumps in the road to my recovery but I would do it all

again in a heart beat.

You and your family are in my prayers.

Warmly,

Leanne,

Thanks for furnishing your address and website information. This will

help us keep track of how you're doing, and hearing news about your

progress will encourage us all.

Progress there WILL be, I feel sure of it. You'll be in the best

hands in the country for this procedure, and you couldn't hope for

more than that. Please go with our thoughts, and prayers, for a

speedy recovery and a smooth transition into the " real " world again.

With love, hope and prayers,

Heidi

Leanne,

Good luck! I have your surgery written on my calender in my kitchen. When I

changed the page today I was surprised to see it there. I am glad that I

wrote it down so that I can remember you in my prayers that day.
