Thanks, rusty. I'm late gettin' to the party, but I hope your Christmas was as peaceful as your prayer. 
Strange family we have, finally after not sleeping last night, mother called to say my daughter made it off the table and is in ICU in Worcester Mass She had called around as did I to find what the Hell was going on.
My son in law has so far only called one family member with any news and as his wife's mother I am ripped to the tits and else where that he never has called me to tell me when my daughter was in the hospital.
I had to get the news from another family member. Really strange Dude,
We are, my daughter and I not estranged, we spoke on the phone a couple times a week, she could not visit me due to lugging about the 0'2 bottles and as I still cannot drive we had to keep in touch via phone.
Now the wait begins to see if she accepts or rejects the transplant. Thank heavens she is on husbands insurance from his work, I cannot imagine what the cost would be were she on Obama Care.
Going to be a lot of sleepless nights for me until I can get down to see her and make sure she is still alive.
I keep telling myself not to panic, to stay calm and take just one step at time. She is in the hands of God now, nothing I can do to change anything, I can pray for her but if God decides to call her home I have to except it.
But all said and done it was a Xmas miracle for her family, on Christmas Eve to get the call and God bless the person and family of them that donated their Liver. So important to all to receive a gift from a stranger
that passed on of life for another.
More then organ transplants, The skin for burn victims, the eyes for the blind, bones, I had a bone transplant in my leg years ago from a donor that allowed me to walk and work another 15 years.
Yes I am rambling as I sit by the phone Waiting for some kind of call, Mothers do this.
