First off get another opinion. How old are you Lyn? I am 56 and my age wasn't an issue. Check out this transplant option to it's fullest, don't lose a good match! Educate yourself, explore all the options. Search yourself and decide for yourself don't let anyone scare you, remember thet you are going for the best quality of life, don't let any one scare you. Stay POSITIVE!! Vera
