Hi all,
Most of you know that I'm 27 and have been diagnosed since age 14 but have had symptoms my whole life. See the message board (My wife diagnosed with end stage hcm). I have been on the transplant list since the end of September and get sicker every day. It sucks but I keep my faith in Christ that he will pull me through. What I've noticed lately is we are needing more transplants. Sounds like the 1-3 percent has increased to more like 10 percent of us will need them. I'm just praying that people realize that being a donor is the ultimate gift. I know it is hard to have to make a decision when your losing a loved one that's why we need to have more people make the decision before that time comes. The way I see it is that it's up to God when it's our time to go and in heaven we don't need our body. It's just a shell of our earthly remains. What a way to continue God's grace by being a donor. May God be preparing all the hearts we need and may the families feel the blessing behind the giving. I know mine is on it's way just a matter of time. Everyone keep your spirits up and take the best care of yourself now so hopefully you don't get to this point. Merry Christmas and God bless!
