heard the squeak

Got the call from Jacksonville very early this morning (4:30).   Lear Jet flies high and is very fast-- only two and a half hours from Albuquerque to here.  Now I am just sitting in a hospital room waiting for
the process to move forward.  So still could be a "dry run".   If it is a go, should happen tonight.  I expect about 8 hours for the operation and will likely end up in the ICU.  Will be on a large dose of  prednisone as well as pain killers.  No important decisions for a few days at least!

Don't know much about donor except matching blood type.   Having some sad thoughts for him/her and family.  I know that I did not cause their death, but don't want to be happy about it either.  I have the
donor to thank for signing the donor card, and all these people who are working hard here on my behalf.
