Getting the call!!

my wife answered the phone at 2:30 in the morning, she was walking down the hallway and I was like who is she talking to. Then she looks at me and gives me the thumbs up and we both start crying. We arrived at KU around 3:15 am but didn’t go to surgery until about 1:40 pm!! I was scared and excited and nervous. I had been on the list just over a year. It was truly an amazing day. I just want everyone to know the real hero’s in this journey are the donors and their families. Thank you for this beautiful gift of life.

oh my goodness!!!! All the feelings! How are you doing?
I was a lucky one! My wait for a liver was very short lived. However, I share the same feelings about who are the real heroes. I am also blessed that I have come to know my hero’s family.
I am happy for you and wish you continued strength in your recovery.
