Morning!
Facebook says it's J
lly's birthday, so
Yesterday was exhausting, so I crashed around 8 & got back up at 3.
We got to meet the donor yesterday & it really does prove the power of the internet, specifically Social Media & Facebook. Back in July a couple days after I relaunched my stepdaughter's website & started sharing it on FB, I was contacted by the daughter of a couple I've known for 35+ years. She had shared the post, followed by a good friend of hers sharing the post, which was seen by that person's cousin. She sent me her contact info & I gave her all the info & really didn't think much about it after that (there were 3 or 4 people like this along the way). Turns out she started the process, got approved & waited for the call. She didn't want to let us know because she was worried we'd get our hopes up & something would go wrong. So this Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon person donated a kidney to a total stranger. The tears of joy I've cried over the last 3 weeks...
Anyway, I'm going to work until I have to pick up the ASSIL, then head up to the hospital. Everyone's doing great & my stepdaughter might be coming home tomorrow or Friday
