World Transplant Games--Gothenburg, Sweden




As I've mentioned before in a previous post, I've participated in the U.S. Transplant Games.  Sadly, in all my years, I've never attended a World Transplant Games.  I was hoping to go to the 2009 WTG in Austrailia but (grrrrrrrrr) I ended up in the hospital twice that year.  Anyhoo, the next World's are right around the corner (in June!) and while I'd L-O-V-E to go I have no flippin' clue how to go about getting the funds to even go. 

I love going to the games and being in that environment.  I'd love to meet OTHER heart/double lungers from around the world (that would be mind blowing!).  I'd love to meet people face-to-face that (until now) I've only talked to via Facebook.  I'd LOVE to go to Europe!! I'd love that I would finally get to say, "I got to go to the World Transplant Games!"  

But........how do I get there?  Where do I begin?

    Kim,
    You need to start fundraising, I imagine that is not going to be a cheap venue. Ask for local business's to sponsor you. Make a webpage for donations. Get Kim to the World Transplant Games. :o) Gl. I wish I could go, maybe next ones.

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking too Denise but would I be "individual"? "Non-profit"? What?
