Conflicted Times---by Robin

I've postponed writing the last few days because I am feeling a great deal of conflict at this time. I do have an idea the source of the conflict but I believe time will be the only resolution, if it does resolve.
Yesterday, I went for my first annual check up after transplant. It was uneventful with the exception that all of my liver function labs are elevated. Seems the Hepatits C is roaring it's ugly head.
Saturday, four days from now, will be my transplant date. Though I want to feel nothing but happiness there is this internal turmoil. I know that while my family is sharing in the joy of my good health my donor family is experiencing the anniversary of their loss of a loved one.
In each day I hold in my heart and soul warm thoughts of my donor family. I hope they have found a sense of peace and satisfaction with their decision to make my first anniversary possible.
If by chance my donor family would happen upon this blog, I hope they recognize that they are always near, in my thoughts. I am never alone as I always have the presence of their loved one inside of me. I hope they realize my gratitude and appreciation.
