Another Freeman Hospital Assessment trip

Hi

Leaving again today for Newcastle staying at hotel tonight then going to hospital for around 11am tomorrow. Will be getting tests like i have had in my last 2 visits and then Thursday early afternoon they will tell me their verdict. Whether or not they predict my lungs wont last me much longer and a transplant is recommended or whether my lungs havent deteriorated and they will see me again in 3months. Now remember getting a transplant isnt a cure nor does it always mean success or guarantee a better life, there is 20% chance of people dying in the first year of a transplant because of rejection to the organs and or infection. Thats why keeping my own lungs may be the best thing for me just now . Read my previous blog from last summer to help get a full understanding. I will write an update when i get home on how it went and what they decided.


Speak soon!
