100 Days
In 100 days, I'll be celebrating my 20th transplant anniversary/birthday. I truly can not believe it and, at times, wonder what I did to deserve this amazing longevity. Only 40% of heart/lung recipients make it five years post-transplant so, according to my math, only 5% of heart/lung recipients make it this far. That's an incredibly humbling statistic and though I remind myself that I'm not a statistic but a person first and foremost, I'm still stunned at how well I'm still doing, all these years later. So eternally grateful to my anonymous donor and donor family because without them, I wouldn't be writing this post right now.
