O+ Donor located

Just when things seemed bleek...bang out of the blue someone steps forward with the potential gift of life. Through a seemly random conversation with a co-worker sprang a discussion about when I would be retuning to the office. This prompted me to explain my situation in detail. To my surprise James (the co-worker) stated he was an O+ and willing to donate!

I have heard many times how sometime total strangers donate, but I really did not imagine I would be so fortunate. This has reaffirmed my faith in good people!

So, we're off and running. James called Emory Transplant Center to begin the initial living donor evaluation and is awaiting a return call.

Things are looking up...not say I'm pinning all my hopes on this possible donor...but I'm hopeful.
