Living On The List

Now that I’m not in hospital but back home where I belong, they have moved me down to level 4 for heart transplant. To be a level 3 which is more likely to be transplanted sooner, many other heart issues must be in place. Must be in hospital with more health problems like stints in heart that are clogged etc…..these are issues I have along with several other problematic issues and in fact did put me in hospital but I still just didn’t feel sick enough to stay.

The interesting thing about the waiting list is a call to save my life can come at any time, 24 hours a day. Suddenly my and Renee’s cell phone has taken on a very important purpose, life and death.

If I were to be ridiculous I would stare at my nice little I-phone, willing it to ring all the while writhing my hands in cramping motions! From what I see, that does zero. My biggest problem is remembering to turn the ringer back on after silent mode in important meetings. Then there is the old Steve forgetfulness and just leave the phone at home, ooops. It’s all good though because my beautiful Renee is all that and always remember her phone, go figure, the transplant people can keep both our numbers! Wow, isn’t tech great?

So yes we pray for that call or better yet, a miraculous healing!
