Update for transplant

Steve is still on the transplant list and is on a "hold" status until he finishes his dental appointments (2 more to go). He received his pager in the mail yesterday. This pager will go off once he is "active" on the list and they have a donor.
Even better news he has had two people come forward offering get tested and donate a kidney and they have both contacted Matt Plummer at Swedish Medical to get started with paperwork and then testing. Steve's cousin Robin e-mailed us and said that she could not donate due to her only having one kidney herself as she donated a kidney to someone in her ward that needed a kidney four years ago, but her husband wanted to get tested! Her husband Tom whom at this time we never met wants to donate, amazing! Tom and Robin already contacted the coordinator she had when she donated and got all the paperwork needed to get started. Thanks Tom and Robin. Not to forget it was great meeting them, we went right up to go meet them a couple a weeks ago. Truly amazing sweet people :o)
A week or so after getting the news that Tom wanted to donate my grandsons mother Amanda text and said that she had been thinking about it and said that she too wants to get tested. After many phone calls and e-mails she too is submitting an application to see if she is a match for Steve.
This is so heart warming to us. We have always been surrounded by great family and friends and this just proves how blessed we are to have them in our lives. If they are not a match we just feel so honored that people are willing to donate. Everyone of you that have sent thoughts and prayers we feel so blessed, loved and thankful for all of you being in our lives :o)
