its a go! AGAIN but serioulsy this time...

As I was waking up this morning, my sister informed me she got ANOTHER call, after being sent home a few hours prior.... so at 6am she was heading up to Boston to see if the 3rd pair of lungs in 3 days was the charm. And it was!

She has been in surgery doing the actual transplant since 130ish. I had such a GREAT feeling about this one. I wore my "I lung you" shirt for extra luck, and it seemed to work. 3 days 3 pairs of lungs, 3 is a lucky number I guess.

Now all we need are some more good thoughts for a speedy recovery.

I am simply overjoyed. She's getting a whole new chance to live again. here here!

It's a go!

She was wheeled into the OR around 9:30 pm. I won't know anything until tomorrow morning, but I hope it goes smooth. I don't even know if I will be able to sleep. I can't believe this is really happening. Love you Julie Christine!

Thanks for keeping her and her donor family in your thoughts. I'm so thankful the donor family is letting my big sis get a second chance, if there ever was a person to deserve it, it's her!
