However, like everyone else here, I am hoping that you are able to make another kind of match besides just the "hmm we have similar dna" one!<br />In other news... blessings and good luck!

...Thanks so much for all the good wishes everyone!<br /><br />As far as my donor goes, it is an anonymous donation from a living donor. We are allowed to exchange anonymous letters for the first year and then after that can choose to exchange contact information and meet. Can't wait!<br /><br />I have no idea how I am going to occupy myself for 100 days. I will be watching lots of movies, reading, watching TV on the internet, crochet-ing an afghan... basically doing whatever I can to occupy myself. Any suggestions are welcome!<br /><br />Lauren, yes, I went to France through the assistansip program! Am more than happy to talk about it with you. I went after my first transplant so it definitely can be done. I'll drop you an email. Good luck with everything!au soleil levanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15677297462884684534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057784862632486139.post-53388784596140108422009-12-02T07:29:35.273-05:002009-12-02T07:29:35.273-05:00Bon courage!

I'm not the most social person yet not going out at all is tough.<br /><br />That said, time does go by fast and I hope you can find cool activities - write a book, distance studying, planning for an awesome trip once this is all behind you... the possibilities are endless!<br /><br />We, the readers, will be there for you :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057784862632486139.post-12338226442418793602009-12-01T16:13:45.480-05:002009-12-01T16:13:45.480-05:00Questions:

How many movies are you going to watch? How many books are you going to read? I expect a champions solitaire player to emerge from that bed.<br /><br />I keep reading your entries and you are in my thoughts. Thanks for explaining this to us so concisely!

I will definitely be thinking of you this week... next week.. and for 100 days... after..
