I hope you’re all having a fantastic summer morning. Today, I wanted to share a little slice of our morning routine and some exciting updates on my journey toward health.
This morning, Barney and I started our day with a new adventure: trying apple for the first time. At first, he was quite taken aback by its tartness, but it didn’t take long for him to start enjoying it! Now, he’s happily playing, and we’re about to get ready for daycare.
Beyond these delightful moments with Barney, I have some important news to share regarding my health journey. Today, I have a significant meeting with the team at INOVA Fairfax. This is part of an education class, which is a crucial step for me to get listed as a potential recipient for a deceased kidney donor in the state of Virginia. In the event that such an option becomes necessary, being listed in multiple states can help increase my chances if getting a kidney.
In more good news, what was initially a long wait for my appointment at John Hopkins in Baltimore has now been moved up from September to next Tuesday. Soon, I’ll also be listed in Maryland, increasing my chances even further!
These updates are filled with hope and possibility. Each listing opens up more doors, whether through a deceased donor matching or by connecting with a living donor. Every step in this process is a step towards better health and a brighter future.
I’m filled with gratitude for the support and love that surrounds me. Your positive vibes and well-wishes mean the world to me.
Wishing you all a day filled with joy and sunshine.
I’m currently seeking a kidney donor and I’m working with an organization called DOVE to help facilitate the experience.
