Wow! What a past month my mom and dad have had!
On Halloween 👻 my dad had a Triple Heart Bypass.
He is recovering like a champ but he is still limited. My mom has mustered up a new energy because the roles of caregiver have reversed. She made a full Thanksgiving dinner this year 🦃! I have become chauffeur. I always imagined the 3 day a week dialysis trip would be cumbersome. Well now I have first hand experience how interruptive it can be. But I am not the one sitting 5 hours attached to a machine, now that’s disruptive! Focus has moved to my dad but we need to get back on track with getting answers on how she gets added back to the transplant list! December starts tomorrow and I think we are doing are best (my opinion we are doing awesome considering)
Maybe this Christmas mom will get the gift of 1 kidney! 🎁

Tuesday,Thursday, Saturday, REPEAT……..Life of Janet.

This is my mom and her life line 3 days a week for 5 hours.
Dialysis Clinic Inc. in East Liverpool , Ohio; Home away from Home
This picture is from 2023 when she moved to a center closer to home (15 minutes) before she was traveling 45 minutes to and from dialysis.

My Dad Fred Werner sent this to me today.
When things needed fixed or built. They’d say give it to Fred he can fix everything. However the one thing I love the most and need to fix I can’t. I need help to give this girl back her life.

So today my mom got some very disheartening news. Her UPMC Transplant coordinator called her telling her she is no longer on the transplant list.
She has calcium build up in an artery which complicates the transplant surgery. The procedure will take more than just the transplant team to perform so a deceased donor is not possible due to the shorter preparation time. A living donor is possible because the surgery can be planned ahead of time with all the necessary people in place.
In the meantime as we exhaust all other options and get more information, I am including the link for a living donor.
LivingDonorReg.upmc.com
Enter her name Janet Werner as recipient
February 2026 will mark 5 years of waiting and being called for kidneys that ended up not being hers.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone with similar story who found a way through it.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a living donor. If you would like to donate to a specific individual, please ensure that they have been evaluated for a transplant at UPMC, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and are currently in contact with the UPMC Transplant team.
