double lung transplant

Just letting all of you know,my husband Bill, one of your travelling members has finally had his double lung transplant, Bill is doing "fantastic".
When told he had only 3 months to live by doctors, in August 2003, he decided to pull a caravan around Australia, he did this on oxygen 24 hours a day, I was not allowed to drive, as he said, "I want to get there in one piece !"
We thoroughly enjoyed it, we believe it prolonged his life, but travelling came to a halt this year, when we were grounded, waiting for a phone call for a transplant.
Bill was getting itchy feet, wanting to get going again.
Bill didn't have to wait long, he had it 4 weeks ago & is home, he is very overwhelmed with everything, & especially to the donors family, he has so much gratitude towards them, knowing the donor not only saved his life but 4 other peoples lives too.All are doing very well too.

So please give some thought to being a donor, the biggest hold up in Australia, is donors, remember one donor can save up to nine lives in one day.................Regards Lyn
