Better liver alone
So this week has been eventful, last week I had lung transplant clinic and my Dr in Newcastle told me that he had, had to pill a lot of strings for the liver transplant team to see me. Reason being on paper, after this year I would most likely not be even asked for assessment but he spoke to his friend who is a liver doctor and asked them to just meet me.
Ha no pressure eh, basically I have to try and show them that I'm ready for this, that my body after almost dying a few times this year will cope and my mind is strong enough.
So how did it all go?

I was accepted onto the list, on Monday I go meet the surgeon and sign all the documentation. It's the best outcome though I guess I had hoped that they would tell me.my liver had made a miraculous recovery. But it didn't. . .
Everyone tells me (doctors included ) that having gone through a lung transplant this will be easy in comparison but I can't help but feel my journey wasn't too bad and what if this time it is.
Onwards and onwards
