Thanks, Dana. I should have mentioned that I’m also grateful to my nephrologist who is the person wanted me to pursue a kidney transplant. I was actually surprised when she said she wanted to recommend me because “you still have a lot of life left to live.” Because of my age and medical issues, I presumed the opposite...that I had only a little life left to live. And that is why I would never have thought of broaching the subject of a transplant. But I must say that the transplant has made a huge difference in my life, and I feel so much better. No exaggeration here, but my Transplant Team continues to marvel at how well I’m doing. And their continued positive feedback and encouragement have given me an infusion of renewed hope and confidence that makes me now think that maybe I do still have a lot of life left to live. I certainly have a better opportunity for that with “Maisha” on board now. 😊
