Getting Closer!!
Been bouncing around a bit, but making progress! I thought I was going to be aproved for my transplant this week, but not so quick!
The big question that was hanging me up was if the GI doctor was going to hold me up? But he gave two thumbs up! so good to go. So was waitting for the aprovel, then they say I need a updated EKG cause mine is over a year old, and at my last physical they did not do a PSA, so I need these two test to be aproved. This will be on Aug 4th. and after giving the Doc crap about if I was Bill Gates that I would be approved already cause I would have the cash!! (long story) I have been assyred this is it! Now my brother has run into issues with getting time off from work for his testing, and they don't want to give him time off for the operation! I said did you tell them the reason? They said it not a wife, mother, farther, or children so it does not fall under family medical leave, and that this is elective surgery, so no time off allowed!!!!!!!!! So why we try and work this out, my daughter made a coment on FB on a channle 25 news story about people putting there loved one needing a kidney on there car window with phone number. A lady living north of boston came on and asked what blood type I am, daughter said A+, lady said willA- work, called me i said yes, lady said How do I get tested?? I talked with my boston person, and she said she has to fill out the online donation form and talk to the Docrtors. My daughter told her and 3 hours later done! So I was told today by boston that she is going in 8/4 at 1200, would that work for me? I said I will be there!! Lady was texting my daughter when i was on phone with boston saying she had the app. daughter told her we will be there as they need fresh blood from me to mix with hers to see how the anti bodys match, i offered to take her to lunch after, she said no have to do that, i said yes i do, so after testing we are going to lunch to get to know each other!!!!!!! WOW thats a mouth full!

The vast spectrum that people in this world live on never ceases to amaze me....You have one complete stranger donating a kidney and another one shooting up movie theaters.
Good for you Joe. Glad to hear the news.

Not a bad birthday present - couldn't go to a better guy. I'm with the rest of the guys wishing you the best and you are in my prayers. Better find out if the gal is a vegetarian before telling her about all the fish you've caught and murdered :).
