Sherry,
My husband's sister was his donor. She was a perfect match for him. He was 64 at the time of his transplant and his sister was 67. She is healthy except for hypertension (controlled) and glaucoma (also, controlled). My husband had a wonderful outcome.
It is wonderful to be prepared with information, make educated and informed decisions, but you will never be in control of the outcome. Ultimately, you must put your trust in something other than yourself. Perhaps it will be the doctors or something else.
We put our trust in the Lord and it totally put us at peace. I hope that you can find peace through this process.
