The biggest disappointment, and the best day.

As you know in the last posts, I have been telling you and everyone else that the wait to recover to get BACK onto the transplant list is 2-8 weeks. I was wrong.

Yesterday we were told, "No, not 2-8 weeks. 3-6 *months*, we don't even start talking about putting people back on the transplant list until after 2 months." That, was what we were told yesterday. Now, this is what is going through our minds, "He wont get a heart for another 3 months at the least, it'll probably be after Christmas before we get the first one come in to dad."

This morning, we are welcomed by a phone call. Mom answers and I go back to sleep. About 10-20 minutes later mom comes in and says "Dad has news for you guys" Dad said the surgeon that put his TAH in came in earlier, he said "We put one person on the transplant list today." Both of mine and Brennans heart stop, "David, we put you back on the transplant list today, you can now get a heart at any time."

Of course, recovering from the surgery in 5 days is CRAZY, this is faster than Perry, he recovered in 2 weeks. Now today is a great day, go have a beer or if your under-aged grab a soda and have a great time today. I myself, am going to grab a beer. (Heh heh heh...)

Thanks for reading,
