Path to Threedo

 Happy New Year to all. 


I wanted to share some news.  On Dec 31st. the Duke team officially listed Laura for her transplant.  The team was very excited and really thought that the wait for lungs would not be too long. Given our experience in California, we had set our expectations a bit differently.

This morning we receive a call that they had possibly found a donor.  Laura went into surgery this evening at about 11:45.  We expect this surgery to be long upwards of 14 hours.  There is a very large team that is very excited to welcome Laura into a very exclusive club of threedos (A Duke term for triple lung transplant recipients).  She will either be the 10th or 11th person to receive a third double lung transplant.

We appreciate all the well wishes, thoughts and prayers.  We hope you all enjoyed a wonder holiday.  Stay safe.


Cheers,

The Zs
