Hello All,
I send you all this message with joy in my heart. I heard from the transplant team today and my special exception points for my MELD score were accepted. What this means is that as of midnight tonight my MELD score will increase from 22 to 25, and hopefully get me closer to being "in the game". Another prayer answered, and I am so blessed. Thank you all for your continued support. I hope the next time Whitney updates my blog it is to inform you that I am on my way to Omaha for a transplant. That will be an amazing invitation, and gift of life. Have a great week. Go Huskers!!!!!

P.S. I get a lot of questions about the MELD score. My best suggestion is to google it, and it will give you more information than you may want. The highest possible score is a 40, which would be given to a patient that was gravely ill, with a short time to live without a transplant, and yet still qualifies to receive a transplant.
