Surprise!

(heavily edited to resemble English!  Sorry ...)

I was sitting in my chair, at the kidney center, nodding off as the TV was just too mind numbing!
The director lady walked up to talk with me.
I am always uncomfortable around her, as I have no idea where she is coming from!
She maybe a very nice person, but I doubt I will ever know one way or another!

So, she is highly excited, and tells me:
I have  been selected to have a kidney transplant by Swedish Hospital!
OMG!!!!!

You have to understand that you have a year's worth of testing, then a board decides your success factors for matching, then hospitals decide if they want to offer their services to you!
And, for some reason, Swedish has leapt the gun on me!

So, I see my kidney doctor next week and see if she knows why!
And I also will be beginning the matching process on Thursday.

I am terribly humbled and grateful, even if it never happens.

All I can think of is that: my constant blood draws show I do not smoke, drink nor do drugs.
This makes me quite the exception there!
I know no one's story there but if you were looking for substance addiction indicators ... they are plainly evident!
So, maybe I am just either lucky or am so boring that a transplant might be successful?

Maybe my days are not up quite yet ....
But what a painful experience this has been!
