About Me

Basic Info:
My name is Kim.
I'm almost 31 years old.
When I was 16 years old, I received a heart/double lung transplant.
I received my transplant due to advanced stages of Eisenmenger's Syndrome. 
(In layman's terms: underdeveloped lungs (due to premature birth) + LOTS of holes in the heart)
I received my transplant on Friday, June 14, 1996 at St. Louis Children's Hospital. That place is very near and dear to my heart...and lungs!

I've come a long way since my SLCH days.  This will be a blog by a transplant recipient but not about my whole transplant life.  Just certain aspects of it that are transplant related.  Enjoy!
