www.fairviewtransplant.org

On March 12th I have my transplant evalution at U of M Transplant Center down in Minneapolis. Mom and Laurie will be with me. I'll go through more tests(EKG, blood work, chest xray) and meet with my transplant cooridator, surgeon, dietain, and go through a class about the transplant procedure. Where I'll need to go once I recieve the call that there is organs available. We will be at the Transplant Center 7am to about 4pm. It will a long and busy day with lots of information and how the transplant proccess works. Then I'll be placed on the Nationwide kidney/pancreas transplant list. I will let everyone know after my evaluation how things went and what I'll look forward to.
