Happy Birthday Katherine !
I hope everything progresses smoothly for you and that your wait will be short so you can have some quality of life again. I got my heart in Dec. 2010. It was strange to feel so good!!! and I was "here" for my daughter's wedding on the beach. I, also, had a career in early childhood ed and teaching/training daycare teachers. Many blessings to you.
Hello Katherine, welcome to tx freinds, glad you joined. Hope your listed very soon, stay positive. Take care.

(I'm 6+ years post transplant) Please look through the "Groups" and "Forums" and join the ones that interest you. The search box in the upper right corner can be helpful at times. We are glad you are here. May your journey and your wait be short.
