I was afraid this was going to happen. I shared my situation with a lot of friends in the last couple of days. I am horrible at the skill of face to face sharing of anything personal, so I used my favorite method: email. I received many replies from good friends promising their prayers and support whenever I need it. I am very grateful for everyone's sincere responses. What I feared also happened, people are assuming that I am getting a transplant tomorrow, and that is not the case. All I am doing is talking with the team that does transplants. This is my fault for using email, it's easy to forward and people tend to see keywords that give them alarm. Rest assured I am very healthy (besides the fact that I have weak kidneys). I have no symptoms and I intend to keep it that way by being proactive, which is why I'm talking to the transplant people tomorrow.
So, tomorrow is the day that I get to learn all about transplants and all that goes into it. I'll have to say that I have less anxiety about the whole day. I'm going to give credit to all of the prayers from my family and friends in the last couple of days since word of my situation has gotten around. Prayer is awesome and I appreciate and feel it.
People have been asking questions about the whole process, and I don't have any answers yet, but I'll take good notes tomorrow and share what I learn. We can all become smarter together.
... stay tuned
