Finally!!!

Last Monday we received good news!! We were notified that Shawn was put on the Transplant list to receive a Pancreas and Kidney. We are so happy and can't wait til we get the "Call". It took all this time to complete the pre-transplant testing and the commitee met and approved his case. The only other set back is that the pre- transplant coordinator from Baylor called and said that Shawn's insurance will only approve him to get the procedure done in Dallas and not in Fort Worth. So that cuts his chance in half. Since there is 2 organ banks, one in Dallas and the other in Fort Worth, he won't even be considered in the Ft. Worth bank because it is out of network according to his insurance. We still need to write down our questions and call the Coordinator back and get clarification on this further.
But we are staying positive and flowing with our routine week by week. Everytime Shawn's phone rings my heart skips a beat, because I know we can get the call any time of day and night and we just can't wait. My heart aches for the day where my husband will no longer be sick and can live a normal life with just a memory of the days when he was so sick.
