    Lol jackie, I did get a kiss. It felt really nice.

    I'm trying to avoid talk of my ex, amazing what crawls out the woodwork when you're dying.

    GlasweJen,
    Believe it will happen.
    Against all the odds, my son received a heart, with probably only days to live. (aged just 7 months)
    11 years on, all is well and he did a 5k run for his transplant team this summer.
    Once this latest news has sunk in a little, focus on the new beginning you will have. I'm so glad to read you are sharing all this with someone.
    Look after yourself, don't push yourself too hard and I really hope that it won't be a long wait for you.
    Please pm me if I can share any info/answer any questions.

  • How lovely a first kiss is, I hope there are many, many more.
    Have been inspired to sign up to the Organ Donor Register (thanks Mme. Hibou for posting the link ) I do carry a Donor card but tbh someone could have a hard time finding it amongst the huge pile o' carp in my handbag.
    First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
  • Woop woop - kisses!!! Love it!

    You have also inspired me to sign up for organ donation....

    Keep us posted.

    Told my work colleague about your story on Fri (partly cause I was weeping at my desk - haha!) told her this morning that you had kisses - wit wooooooo....... We are both sooo chuffed for you!

    Ooooh I'm so happy for you! Really glad the moment of madness happened! :j

    I've also joined the register, I have a donor card somewhere anyway but thought I'd better sign up in my new married name too just in case! :)

  • Aww this thread made me cry! I think you have done the best thing in telling him. I hope you enjoy your time together. 6 months of happiness is better than 6 month of been alone.

    I hope you manage to get a new heart. I know that might sound a but blunt. But there is really no other way of putting it is there? :o

    yay!!


    (can i just ask people who have signed up to organ donation that you tell your families that is what you want to happen)

    My family know Jilly as they're all donors too, my Mum actually got me a donor card and told me that I was a donor rather than asking me! :) My DH isn't a donor though (various strange fears that I blame his parents for) but I'm working on him; it's such a worthy thing to do, I like to know that I can provide someone with a second chance when I'm gone. :)
