It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

With luck, this will be the start of healthier exsistence for Nit.

Best of luck sir.

Amen to that. May this liver treat you well and not hate you, Nitram.

Best wishes guys and good luck.

Just got the same news from Tev. Delay in the procedure, booted back to 4AM EST. Nit's coping and might be on and off line until it's time to prep for it. Otherwise everything is going good at the moment.

My sympathies to you both, Tev & Nitram. May your search be over soon.

:cry:

Frustrating, yes. Upsetting. Nailbiting fear/worry, that turns to a gut-punch to the stomach and a empty 'that was it'?!?! feeling. All the fuss, all the rush, all the waiting, and nothing.

Then, we got philosophical. :thumbsup
The liver had passed all the other tests -- blood work, x-ray, c-scan, MRI. Everything matched, but finally the surgeons found the flaw the old-fashioned way, by looking it over with the Mark-One eyeball. A flaw that would have caused a lot of problems if it had been transplanted into Nitram.

Disappointing... but it showed just how careful the doctors are. It showed that we can get our butts in gear, get to the hospital, and sweat out the hours without going insane. And we'll do it again the next time there's a liver available. It also showed us how many people are rooting for Nit's continued health.

To all of you who called, IM'd, texted, and sent up prayers to the various deities... Thank You. :luv:

Awww. :cry:

I hope you'll get another one quickly.

Will this affect Nitram's position on the List?
