Timing is everything they say! I finally got the call; I have a donor. I have a match and it's go time. When the phone rang my heart lept and sank in the same beat. If I have a donor that means someone has lost a loved one... a young person. The donor had to clear all kinds of criteria... including age; young and healthy bone. We have been praying constantly for this person for months now. Praying for the salvation of a stranger; so that when their life is over, their soul will rest in heaven and their femur in me. It is in quarantine until next week, when it will be transplanted into my body on January 6th at the same hospital I was born in.  I can hardly believe it. Of course I am very disappointed I won't be at the first inaugural fundraising event, but it's not about me. It's about the people who will receive this next well. I will be in the hospital for a little while after surgery, so the rest of the staff has graciously stepped up and are going to host the event in my absence. Thanks ladies! You are the best staff ever!

I don't know anything about the donor, but was told I could write a letter to the family and the procurement agency would give it to them. If the family chooses to seek out the recipients, I have elected to be open to meeting/talking with them. We are praying for a smooth surgery, a seamless transplant, and mostly a clean bill of health! And a speedy recovery! Because we've got a lot of work to do for Charity Water!
