A hugely tragic day in my life...
When I had my transplant, there was another "Matt" waiting and in
desperate straights, waiting for a heart donation... I went into surgery
thinking he would not be around when I woke up.... To my delight during my
coma etc, he'd also been given the gift of life and when I finally awoke he
was also nursing a big scar!!
During our recouperation, and ongoing check ups we'd meet, chat, laugh at
the stupid things we'd tried to do to soon, and we kept each other spirits up.
It was with enormous sadness that I learnt he'd been admitted on Thursday
with heart issues. He emailed me on Thurs and Friday to say he felt a liitle better
but there was still concerns etc, but he was in talks with QEH to be transferred
there next week.... Sadly this never came...
He had complications and passed away. The whole QEH "family" of
recipients and staff are mourning a likeable YOUNG man.
We will miss you Matt...
Our thoughts are with your family and loved ones at this awful time.
Rest in peace....
