Sorry...I screwed something up and couldn't edit the last one or complete it...
I have been so worried and stressed about making sure that the Greenway was running well and making sure grant deadlines were met and that I stayed in the loop with everything and that I was working hard enough that I was constantly stressed and doing a bad job of juggling. I knew I had to be responsible for bringing home a paycheck and keeping my health insurance. When I went to the hospital on Tuesday and two doctors told me that I could have easily bled to death had I not made it there when I did, I called work and told them I would not be working the rest of the week. Guilty as I felt, I knew I had to put me at the top of the list and get well. And when my Board heard that I was back in the hospital, they said the same thing...before they even knew what I was thinking. I need to take care of me and my health so that I could get strong, go through a successful transplant and come back to work again.
And we definitely have the team to run the Greenway. They are so supportive and work so hard that I feel very comfortable leaving it all in their hands. And they each really care about and support me. It is so wonderful to work with people who truly care about me. And, of course, I can't say enough about having management that is so human and caring that they are making sure I come first and knowing and trusting that this is the proper course of action. Not just a job!!!
To say that I'm feeling hopeful and optimistic is an understatement. But you all should know that the transplant is not a done deal. I have not even met for the first consultation yet. It could turn out that I am not a candidate, but that's not the impression that I got...the doctors in Indy reviewed the pet scan with a group of multi-specialty doctors there and said that it looks like I would qualify.
Please pray that the transplant is a go...and that I'm strong enough to sail through the procedure...and that the new liver will be compatible...and that I will live to rock my grandbabies to sleep. God is guiding my ship and He knows that I'm not done here. I love you all for your support and the strength it gives me.
Peace,
Lenette
