I almost missed out on responding becore you had the transplant. With so many prayers on this board for you, there's no way on earth anything will go wrong.
I hope everything goes well for you and your donor tomorrow. Get strong and let us know how you are when you can. We'll be thinking about you.
Oh My Goodness Look at all these posts on my thread. You guys are the best. I feel so lucky to have friends like you. The girls and I had a great time out yesterday. Actually, we were after 10:00 p.m. getting in last night. We decided to go out to dinner also. Today we went to church and then to lunch. Hey no cooking for a while. Later this after-noon we played baseball with some friends. The guys cheated, that is all I am going to say. I am all packed and ready to get this journey behind me. I would be lying if I said I was not nervous. I have however put it all in God's hands. The surgery will take 4 to 6 hours. I will be in intensive care for a couple of days, as I have been told. My daughter-n-laws will have their hands full with my sons. I am sure they will have some stories to tell me. My 5 year old grand-daughter says she is going to come and stay with me at the hospital, so I won't be scared. I told her that would be great. Tomorrow I will have lunch with my donor, then it is off to see my sweet WILL . It will be a little while before I will get to stop and visit with him. Again I want to thank all of you for the prayers for Will , my donor, and myself. God Bless each and everyone of you. Love to all. I'll be back soon
Pam, your words have gotten me thru many dark times. Thanks for always being there. I will keep you in my prayers alon with your donor and Will. Those little girls need the grandmom to teach them about life so keep fighting and keep the positive attitude. Your new addition needs to get to know what a wonderful grandmom he has.
"Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Hopeful
Pammie, Best of luck to you, your donor and of course Will. You have so many people praying and pulling for you that God would have some splaining to do if anything bad were to happen.
Take care and we'll all be waiting anxiously to hear how you are. Love, Jill Take care.
Hi (((Pammie))), I know you're not going to be back for a while, but I'm giving you a bump anyway so you don't fall to page hundred and twenty!
I hope everything went splendidly. I'm sending you healing thoughts as I bike to and from work every day. I'm sending the same to your wonderful co-grandmom/donor, and to little Will as well.
Good Morning All I have to get up early these days. I have to be at the hospital by 8:00 each morning for my blodwork. I live 1 hour from the hospital. Oh well the everyday blood giving will end in a couple of weeks. Then it will just be once a month. I had quite the shocker given to me yesterday. It was around 1:00p.m. I was settled in for my nap and the phone rang. I answered it It was my X-MIL. I saw it was her phone number before I answered the phone. I chose to answer the phone, because there was nothing she could ever say to me, or no way she could hurt me like she has done in the past. She said she had heard that I was having a transplant and wanted to know when I was going to have it. I told her it was over. She said she did not know I was sick. I said I am not. My X-MIL had all these answers that she called me for. My good friend goes to my X-MIL's church and their pastor came to see me in the hospital. She was just on another fishing expedition,just like when her sweet baby boy and I were in the midst of our ugly divorce. Thank you Lord, but I'll pass on the next MIL. I had a great day yesterday. My younger son and his family spent the majority of the day with me. My son worked on my pool to get it ready to be opened for the kids to swim in. I have so much to be thankful for this Mother's Day. I know my boys have something planned for me today. I don't know what. I can smell a rat though. They keep calling each other, so I know they are up to something. Hey as long as it doesn't hurt I will have fun. I sure hope they don't make me laugh from down in my belly yet. That will hurt. God Bless All I love each and everyone of you. You are all special to me Have a great Mother's Day.
H A P P Y M O T H E R ' S D A Y, P A M M I E !!!! I'm sure your family will make this the best Mother's Day ever for you. You've been through so much and have handled everything with such strength and dignity. It's all up from here!!!! Hope Will gets to come home soon.
