Guest guest Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Dorothy prayers are with you and you are going to be ok. As for the $25,000 maybe you can have some fund raisers. I know here there are several groups that will match what you make. I'm so very happy for you.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Dot, Congradulations! I hope the evaluation goes well. Try to take things one at a time. It won't seem so overwhelming. Remember many others have gone before you and things have a way of working out. Its exciting to hear you are bgoing to be evaluated...Good luck I'm sure you will get good advice from some of the people that have had it done. Can you get become part of the transplant group now?
