@gaylea1 I know that body size is a consideration because if a person is to small their liver won't be large enough for a bigger person and a large person's liver is to big for a smaller person. Depending on where you live I would think that a 30 score should have you close to the top of the list. My husband got his with that score, but it was during the summer. I don't think that transplants happen as often this time of year, which is frustrating when you are waiting. You have lots of support here!
Blessings,
JoDee

@jodeej yes I am very close to the top but am aware that others are being transplanted as the wait for the correct size. We our weather gets worse our donors seem to be on the rise. Thanks for your support and insight.
