I got the call and it was a GO!

This isn't a long message - I just wanted to let you all know that after 18 days in the hospital I am now home with my brand new lungs!! I am forever grateful to my donor and donor's family for giving me a second chance at life. I haven't felt this good in YEARS! 11/11/11 at 11:11pm I received a call from my transplant center telling me that they had a match for me. From then on, it's all kind of a big blur to me. I was in the hospital for 18 days, and I am finally home!!

Please keep my amazing friend Kristy in your prayers, as she really needs a call to come as soon as possible!
