By the way~~~~

By the way...
I have gone on to write, in general.
Initially, my blog here was supposed to be to kind of let someone know exactly how hard it has been waiting, and waiting, and waiting...for a kidney transplant. I kind of hoped that somehow, word would get out that I was getting tired of waiting, and maybe someone would come forward and try to at least...get tested to possibly be my donor...or at the VERY least, be approved to be someone else's donor so I can get moved up on the waiting list???
Or, if not that, at least do a little networking for me please...tell everyone you know, as am I, etc...to get the word out.
After almost a year of writing, almost nothing has happened.
I cherish, with all my heart, every comment that I have received, and I thank you much. Alas, even comments have been few and far between.
So I moved on from that topic, and shared some, about my cats...cars...moving across the country (again)...And whatever else.
I am considering getting into sharing some about where I've been, what I've gone through...because my life has been essentially boring-as-hell, but with a few really exciting moments. (I said, EXCITING...I didn't say, necessarily, exciting in a good way!!! But to know what I mean, you would have to know my story...which you will, if only you'll stick with me here.)
I may not be the best writer out there, but...if I quit, no one will know I ever was doing anything and everything to reach out and be as real and as tangible as possible so that maybe someone would want to help me network.
Like my first transplant doctor told me...my job...is to tell everyone I know to tell everyone they know, etc., etc., etc. And if someone along the way wants to be my advocate, and help with my networking, please, be my guest!
Maybe, if we all network, maybe word will get out to one of those living-donor chains that I have read about. I know they're out there...but I have had no luck at all in connecting with one.
Let me wish anyone who comes along here, this week:
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With love and best wishes for a lovely holiday...
