I have been on a Lung transplant list for about six months. Last Sunday at about 4PM I got a call from the Hospital. They said they had a donor and I needed to start for the Hospital. My daughter gave me a ride and my son met us there. I called my wife to tell her the good news. She is at in-patient rehab for a total knee. I went thru all the needed stuff. About 9:30 PM I has taken to pre-op. About 12:30 AM, the Doc came out and told me I was going home. When he inspected the donor lung he saw signs of pneumonia. Needless to say that made it junk. I know this can happen, but it is still quite a let down! Lots of people wait a lot longer or never get one. Next time when my wife is with me it will be a go.
Every one stay safe and have a good holiday!!!
