When someone saves your life and gives you life, there`s gratitude, humility; there`s a time you`ve been so blessed you realize you`ve been given another chance at life that maybe you did or didn`t deserve.
Well, to take me from where I was, and the life I was leading, to the life I lead now with the church and with the Lord and with Jesus Christ, it`s a total, total turn-around.
Well, I know how the system works. I know that there`s something called the MELD system, which is nationwide. There are zones as far as evaluation of need for liver transplants.
There were a couple of things in the intervention that made me know I needed help. One was a letter from my daughter saying that she was ashamed she had the same last name as I did, which will shock you a little bit.
So, I didn`t get moved up because of celebrity status or anything like that. I got in line, and I passed the test. And they realized that I was sick enough, and as soon as the liver became available, I got one.
