It's been awhile since I posted anything, because overall things have been stable.  There are time when I don't feel well, but all my labs have stayed about the same. Then things happened this week.

On Monday, I received a phone call from the transplant center that I was on back-up for a kidney from a deceased donor.  It seemed unlikely to work out as multiple people in front of me would have to be found to not be a good match. This morning, Wednesday, I received a call that the list had moved and there was a "high likelihood" that a kidney could be offered to me.  I immediately left work, showered, packed a bag and waited for the follow up call.  In the end it wasn't the call I was hoping for and the kidney went to the person right above me.  While overall disappointing, I never expected to get a call this soon, so I can't be too upset.  I'm optimistic that my time will come sooner than later.
