About Me

Yes, time to give you an update with what is happening with me. I am getting along great, physically, and by that I mean, my new heart has been doing a good job. They told me after the transplant that it was a perfect match. I thought I was "one of a kind". Anyway, at my last biopsy visit in April, I had done my x-ray, echo, and while waiting for them to come take me to do my biopsy, the doctor came in and said "we are not going to do any more biopsy's on you, we only do the Alomap bloodwork." I was so excited.

The Alomap bloodwork had been done in coordination with my biopsy for a long time and if their readings are the same results, they do not perform the biopsy any more because they can get the same results just from the lab work. SO, after two and a half years out, I am free of the biopsy. I am on very little medication for the heart rejection. And will be forever, I guess. BUT I am so happy that God has seen fit to leave me here a little longer and with the quality of life that I have. God is an awsome God! ! !

So, with this update, I want to thank all of you for your prayers and kind words. I love every one of you and if you see me anywhere, stop me and talk.

I love you!
