Good Afternoon All,
The last 18 hours have been chalked with anxiety. Melissa had talked with the Dr.'s earlier this week and they had told her that calls had been made, but we were still in a holding pattern. Then last night Judy and Melissa received a message on their phone from the Heart Transplant Coordinator at the University of Pittsburg Medical Center. Of course it was too late to call then and we had to wait half the day for the lady to call Melissa back. So the message is inspiring. She has been qualified for Pittsburg. (don't get too excited yet). She will still need to go for testing and then her results will be taken to the committe. (The committe decides) They had called other programs also, so hearing from Mayo/Minesota is not out of the question yet, although Pittsburg comes highly recommended. We are still hoping to get a call from Mayo, but this is an exciting start. Melissa is in good spirits, just very tired with all of the stress going on. She will write when we have more news. Keep the prayers coming and maybe an extra one for Mayo to call. Thank you for all of your kind words and love that you all have sent through this site, we can't say it enough how much it means to all of us. Terri
