Lets hope for smooth sailing...

I usually don't like to blog from the public access terminals but this time i think i will make an exception. In the three hours that i've been here today i have been able to see her three times... After the fourth visit I think I will go home and go be with the family as per today's theme holiday "Family Day!" Hooray, well what shall we do... We certainly have a lot to be happy about and I think a nice little dinner out of the house would be really nice.

I am fighting off the urge to cough while I am in the hospital because of course lung transplants and colds are not a good thing... I think though at this point in time that it's actually just the dry air that i've been subjected to for the past couple of days. Lots of crying and laughter all in the same day tends to help dry things out somewhat as well.

Seeing lots of familiar faces again today and it's such an amazing experience seeing the same people who we spent so many months in physio with. All but one so far has been done as well. Thanks to that Ex Vivo Lun Perfusion study they have really been able to step up the amount of transplants being done.

I am sitting in the waiting room clicking away at an old style AT keyboard. Well i'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

The phone just rang they said I can come back in and see my mom so away I go for now... :)
