Thanksgiving.
So Thanksgiving is tomorrow. You didn’t really think that you’d get out of reading a thanksgiving post, did you? Oh, you did? Silly rabbit.
My list isn’t long, but I have a lot to be thankful for and topping that list is: I GOT A MOTHERFUCKING KIDNEY! Sorry, I’m a selfish bitch and living makes me happier than anything/anyone else. It is tentative, and barring any complications I should have a functioning transplant early next year. This is still contingent on my potential donor passing a few more tests. So all you people that got tested are still possibly in the running but I am much closer than I have been so I’m happy. Next on this list is my family. My parents, brother and Lars have basically carried my sorry ass through the last three years. I would not be here without your love and support. Words will never be able to express how much you mean to me. Along with my family, I also have the best friends a girl could have. Cesare, Fenik, Kelley, Maureen, Deanna, Maggie, Dave, Kris, Melanie and all the rest of you have at one point or another, knowingly or not, saved my life. There have been countless times that I have felt like giving up and each one of you has reminded me exactly why that is not an option. I could not do it without you. All the people that came out of the woodwork and got tested for me-thank you. Your kindness and love does not go unnoticed. In fact, it has restored my faith in people, something that I had lost long ago. I am excited to see what my new life will bring and I am very grateful to have a chance to spend more time with all of you.
Well, that’s it. Apparently my illness has made me into a sentimental little girl. Who knew?
