Good luck. Living donation is the best way to go and I hope you get matched and approved. I am starting my transplant evaluation, but have already prepared myself for my potential living donors to be denied. They are pretty strict when it comes to the health and safety of living donors, they have to be. Then I was blessed/cursed to be handed a blood type of O so the pool of possible donors is pretty small. But my time will come, just as yours will.

Hi, @coreyweubank and Welcome to Connect. I know that you are going to be undergoing an exhausting series of consults, exams, tests as you continue your evaluation to be placed on the UNOS transplant list with eligibility for a kidney transplant.
My transplant was 16 years ago. I was blessed to receive a simultaneous liver and kidney transplant at Mayo Rochester. I am in total agreement with what you already said, "...My time will come...," . I hope that everything goes well for you.
