Guest guest Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 CONGRATULATIONS I am so happy for you. You will be in our prayers alwaysDorothy reineckeSent via BlackBerry by AT&TFrom: Paradis3@...Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2009 15:49:03 EDTTo: <Breathe-Support >Subject: Re: And my verdict was good, too! Hey, Group.... Back from the U. of Penn. The evaluation went well, tests were all good, and I can be listed for a single transplant. I need to lower my bad cholesterol a few points and shave a few pounds but I don't see that as a problem. So at this point I'll go back in three months and make sure signs are still stable. If and when the notorious decline happens, I'm all pre-approved and ready to move over onto the list. My regular doc there is Dr. Hoffman. The guy I deal with regarding the transplant, who keeps all that information, is Dr. Lee. I'm finding the docs and staff at that hospital to be among the most knowledgeable, helpful, and pleasant I've ever had to deal with. But Philadelphia traffic still sucks. Anyway, this is a great day for me. Thanks for your prayers and good wishes. Bill C. IPF 10/08N.E. PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
