I am so excited to start my blog. I had been sick for 7+ years, with a Rare Liver Disease.. (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis) and Cirrhosis of the Liver. I believe I was given this disease and long hard road to walk, so that I could help others with similar situations, become a volunteer for IOPO/Donate Life, and share the importance of Organ Donation. And most of all, to have a closer walk with God! Here's my story...

Surgery
At 4:30 a.m. May 27, 2008 I was taken to the OR. When they came and got me from ER, saying good bye to my family was a wake up call. I really didn't know if I would see them again. We said our good bye's and I was taken into the OR. I don't remember a lot, but I remember it being cold, and white, and noisy!! I was on the OR table and my arms were stretched out like I was on a cross. They sat me up to get things ready, and across the room was a pink wash tub and two doctors holding this huge pink organ!! I said "Is that my liver"?? The nurse said, "yes it is, isn't it beautiful"? The doctors were putting the bile ducts into the ports. And that is the last thing I remember for about 9 days!!
