Dear Carolyn and Richard,
I am so sorry to hear of the transplant cancellation.

It is truly hard to accept when you are so excited about it and it doesn't happen, but keep on hoping and praying and it will happen. I know it's not a popular opinion, but everything happens for a reason. I have seen this too many times in my own life for it not to be true!
Not to diminish your pain or sadness, but possibly there is a better match somewhere else and this is the way for you to find it. And again, he might change his mind (if that is the reason)...people are frightened of things that they do not know about-think of all the things that you did not know about kidney disease and were terrified and now that you do, it might be still scary, but you know what to expect and can kind of plan for things.
Please know that you are in my daily prayers and I will keep you in my thoughts-let us know how you are doing, ok?
Love,
Pam
