Firstly, no word from Transplantland yet.
Second, lets talk about my transplant fears, shall we? Great. I'll go first.
Transplant Fear #1:
Getting fat. Truely. I'm terrified of Prednisone b/c of what it did to me the last time I was on it. I blew up. I looked like a monster. I had terrible, terrible moonface. I had to go to PROM bloated with terrible, swollen moonface b/c i had gotten off prednisone and for me, it took EONS to leave my system. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I know I will prob have to be on it, so lets hope it's a small dose. I'm superficial; i know. So shut up.
Transplant Fear #2:
Getting a job. I'm going to have to live, which means I have to plan my future. That's scary! It's normal - I've never been normal. So i'm scared of it. I hope i can get a good job and afford a house. I hope. I hope.
What else am I scared of? Not much, which I guess is good. I'm terrified I'm not going to be able to find a good job once I'm all fixed and better. But I guess that's better than worrying about other shit But what in the hell will i do with a degree in Anthropology? Work in a museum? I dunno....I really don't. For now, I'm working on graduating. Oh yeah, and doing homework, which I should probably get back to.
I took a break to bake brownies.
Oh me. Oh my. What will we do with ourselves? I guess we'll just sleep I guess. That's ok with me.

I understand your pred fears, I've been on it for over two years and at higher doses I get moonfaced. Not to mention bloated, we can't forget that. But, at lower doses I don't have a problem with it so I hope you can taper off to a low dose if you get put on it.
As for working in a museum, I'd love that job. I will go to a museum over just about anything (maybe not a zoo, after all I was a keeper for five years), so working in one would be fabulous. Have you ever been to the Feild museum in Chicago?
So you're scaredof being a Jerry Springer character...fat and unemployed! Haha, you're funny!! I must say I'm also scared of the work thing, I finished my degree more than 2 years ago and feel like I can't remember a thing!! And I've got no experience, so who's gonna employ me! As for the prednisone, I'm on 10mg a day now, and I think I look fine, so hopefully it's not much more than that that they put us on. But I know that they decrease the dose over time.. O well, we'll be so busy with other stuff it won't matter!
