I've been on dialysis for 5 years now... which means when I eventually get listed for transplant, I'll be at the top of the list, because nobody survives 5 years...

This may offer some hope: Thomas Yuen lived for 42 years on dialysis. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Yuen>

My thoughts with you wish you the best. Curious why you aren't already on a waiting list for a transplant?

The rules are very strict, primarily with respect to weight. That is, was (and still am) fat, and that's a no-no. I've lost 120 pounds so far, with at least 10 more to go before I will finally be (possibly) approved!
