Hi All,
Sorry for being such a Blog Slacker. But Back to Regular Posting. Results of the our Donor / Recipeint testing are ” IT’S A MATCH ! ! “. They were Very Thorough with the DONORs Testing. The Transplant Team takes the attitude that 1) The Recipient – ME - needs the transplant, thats a given, But a Healthy Donor Does Not Need to be in surgery, So if we’re Putting a Healthy Person through Surgery We’re Checking every Damn Thing Very Closely and Investigating anything that is slightly our of the Normal. In out Case the Donor has a Very ” Athletic ” heartbeat and Blood pressure, ie. fewer bpm than the average bear, Yet he’s not a cardio King when it comes to fitness, just your typical Weekend Warrior with a reasonably Active Job. So they’re checking that further. It’s not a big deal, but to be cautious they’re Looking Deeper. If it was the Recipient they would just say he needs the surgery, its a Minor thing so Let’s Git er Done. So Now We Wait for a the 24 Heart Monitor test results that Donor is Doing Early June. And Wait for a Surgery Date ! .
Like the Chourus of the Tom Petty Song so Elequintly puts it, :
” The waiting is the hardest part, Every day you see one more card, You take it on faith, you take it to the heart, The waiting is the hardest “
