Just after midnight this morning my nurse came in to test me for Covid (first time). Suspicious… Thirty minutes later a cardiologist came in to tell me they have a viable heart offer and they may start the surgery as soon as 8 am! Another thirty minutes go by and he calls to say it is postponed until later this evening. The rest of the night they’ve been drawing blood off and on (a total of 20 vials so far). At 8 am I was taken down for a vascular ultrasound to make sure I had no blood clots. 2 pm this afternoon no more food and drink.
This could still end up being a dry run. Apparently, the chances are one in ten of that being the case.
I will be amending this post instead of creating a new post for every update. I don’t think you’ll be notified (subscribers) when this post is amended so you’ll have to check the site periodically for updates. If I’m wrong about that, please let me know.
Thank you all for your love and support!
4 PM Update:
Surgery is scheduled for 11 pm tonight.
11:57 PM Update: Turns out this heart is not up to speed and has been rejected by the surgical team. They did not tell us why. That makes this dry run #1.

Hey Jean,
Eve & I are sending tons of Love & Prayers!!🥰🙏🏻You Got this💦
Just now saw the update. It must feel like back to the drawing board. Things somehow manage to work out for the best though, and they will for you, dear Jean.
This is the 3rd time I’m trying to post (don’t ask!). Sometimes we need patience in dealing with technology and waiting for hearts! Ok so you can’t really compare the two. We are all waiting along with you!
Wow. How hard it must be to be so hopeful and then have it fall through. But now you know what you have to go through when it finally does happen….And it will. Hang in there. You have a lot of people who love you and are praying for you.
We’re all rootin’ for ya’ Jean!
