Thanks so much for the Birthday Wishes. I have been able to enjoy my second chance at life thanks to my donor and my donor family. This precious gift has enabled me to enjoy my family and friends for an extra 71/2 years. I intend to add an additional 25 more years to my life.

Thanks again - John

Hi John,

I am so happy to hear that you got a liver! I am also pleased to know that the surgery went well. Please continue to take care of yourself, get lots of rest, try to do a little bit of walking everyday to regain your strength, and most of all, DO NOT FORGET TO TAKE YOUR MEDS!

I will continue praying for you so that you may return to your normal life.

Love,

Gloria

Hi John,

Thanks for taking the time to read my profile and send me a comment. Hang in there and please do not listen to anything negative. It is very important to keep a positive attitude, believe me, it works wonders. You must also trust in God and I will be praying for you as you wait for a liver.
