going Forward
I just recieved a call from the transplant coordinator.I have been appproved to move forward for a Liver Transplant,This is per Dr.Lee the transplant (forgot her official title),and my insurance.I guess the hardest thing in front of me is finding a damn Dentist around here.
I am not awake enough to get excited about this.Unfortunately I still have an attitude about the place not wanting to do Live Donor transplants.I think that is a personal issue between the recipient and donor.
Later everybody....can't seem to stay awake lately.Been sleeping for 3 days.

I can see why you would feel tired, with so much to do in the near future, but I see you staying calm and organized, gathering strength, and gaining a wonderful, positive attitude.
That is great news, concerning your Care-Giver situation. I hope you find
a wonderful Care-Giver very soon :)

I was thinking as I reread my post that maybe it should have said "Humane Factor".
Thank you for your compliments,I am humbled to have you
compliments.I don't know if you have read any of my posts when everything that came out of me was negative.YUK! I do love people so much.Especially old folks,2 year olds and sick people.Really.
I have been so scared lately that I had to ask myself alot of questions about my faith and I realized that I was stealing from today by worrying about tommorrow.I will make it !But not because of me...because of the love that get shared with me from My youngest children,Griz, and all of YOU!!

Dear kind soul - your words brought light to a void I have sensed, even felt like this void was following me like a shadow on a sunny day; the Human factor. I can not thank you enough. Yes, I love your adaptation for this sore trait that exists as long as apathy reins. Wasn't it Ghandi who said: 'Be the change you want to see' or as my Mom would say: 'kill them with kindness'. You are my inspiration and I wish I could bump into someone like you through my days. Wish filled here today - OK you know what I mean.
You have a lot on your plate right now but your heart embraces all of us so tenderly. With that kind of strength, I think you will make it with more to give. You are an amazing person, I bow to you. I bow to all the fierce Warriors fighting for their lives.
(I'm a big chicken when it comes to teeth. I have some major dental issues to manage once I muster the courage and money. We can do this!!!!!)

This is the FIRST step!Soon I will be called by the Coordinator for the 3 day test battery that includes the financial class,the psyche evaluation,substance abuse(if issue)lung ,cardio,catscan and I can't remember them all.Then 10 after they notify me if UWMC accepts me as a candidate.
I did find out that the person that goes with me for this,,event does not have to be the person that willl be my caregiver!!WooHoo!That gives me time to come up with somebody.
I have something that I am going to do for all future apps.(I don't remember who I was discussing with that the HUman factor was missing when I was there.) well I AM going to be the human factor in the future.I am going to put my warmth and Love in the room and with all that cross my path.I will look straight into their eyes smile and warmly shake their hand and introduce myself first and in each greeting thereafter. I am going to ask "How are You today?" before anyone can ask me .I will provide what is lacking,I will give what I want and need THE HUMAN FACTOR.I will let you all know when my next apps. will be.

Wonderful news.
Do take care of your dental work. I lost several teeth because of not having them in perfect shape before my transplant
Try and keep your weight up as best you can.
Some transplant centers don't do live liver transplants for a number of reasons.
There is the legitimate concern of putting a healthy person at risk. Also they need to have more surgeons, as they will be performing two surgeries at the same time. I'm sure there are more reasons.
Thanks for letting us know.
OH
