Hi Kathy

You are so young, and whie I am not sure what type of kidney disease you have, is their a chance for a BMT??? With your age, I would think you would be an excellent candidate. Not possitive, but at that age would'nt you have atleast a 50% chance of long term survival. You are so right about facing your own mortallity. One day you are cruising through life, and the next day you are getting the call that your blood counts are low and you might have a terminal illness. My wifes birthday is also on Sept 11, and is an amazing women. However she is only 29, and my daughter is 4, and I just can't stand the thought of leaving them yet.

God bless you all, and I hope you all continued health...
