Robin covered our meeting each other well. It was exciting for me after being in the UK forums for months to discover the "new kid" was also in Arkansas. Since there was no real face to face support groups in my area that I was aware of, the hope of our actually meeting in person was high. Our meet in person was also quickly arranged & we've been close since. Thinking back a few days ago when asked how long we'd been friends we both were a bit in awe that it was not as long ago as it seems. Frankly, it's difficult to recall not having Robin in my life. She may think of me as her mentor in our transplant journeys, but she is my advisor as well with her RN background, often putting my medical questions, lab test confusion & concerns at ease.
We do share a goal, of the desire to bring more Awareness of the need for donors, a place for recipients, donor families & families affected by transplant issues to connect.
B-Positive, Deb
