So my surgery is scheduled for this Tuesday, the 18th. Unfortunately, my recipient was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. I'm hoping to get some more info tomorrow as to how he is doing. We might try to push it back a couple days or a week, but if he doesn't get significantly better in the next week, I'll be donating to someone on the wait list instead (because my schedule is pretty tight in terms of when I can donate). And, if I donate to the guy with pneumonia, it will kick off three more transplants in a chain, compared to if I just donate to someone on the list and it stops there. In the meantime, I'm going ahead with all of my pre-op tests tomorrow with the hopes that it's on for next week.
Keeping my fingers crossed...
