A full week at the University of WA

I feel like the wheels have really started rolling with getting listed!  They scheduled me with several appointments at UW this week.  I'm meeting with with the Liver Transplant Surgeon this morning to go over what the liver transplant surgery looks like and have any of our questions answered.  The surgeon is very kind and soft spoken and was happy to answer our questions.  This afternoon I will be meeting with the UW Nutritionist to talk about diet dos and don'ts both before and after transplant.  This is the second time I have met with a nutritionist because insurance dictates that I must have that visit for liver transplant and a separate one for lung transplant.  Gotta love the system!  But it was good info and she was very nice.  We have decided to stay over in Seattle because we would be getting home so late and then have to be back in Seattle for a 7:45am appointment.  We picked a hotel with very strict guidelines about Covid and reviewed their cleaning procedures.  We also took our own sanitizing wipes and a UV light to disinfect all of the surfaces, just for good measure.  It was a clean room and we felt safe.  Early day tomorrow with Dr. Raghu!
