Hey guys, long time no see.
I am writing to you just after a rather painful surgery so please forgive me if my words get a little tangled up - I'm pretty drowsy but this is incredibly important to share with everyone.
I have recently been placed on HelpHopeLive.com as a transplant recipient for funraising! This means that should anyone ever wish to, they can donate to my transplant fund directly and know it will safetly be put aside until used specifically on transplant related things.
It means so much to me that people have repeatedly asked to help out, and now I have a solid legitimate way to do so, and it's even tax deductable! So please, head on over to:
HELP HOPE LIVE
And take a peek at my page, maybe make a small donation!
Thanks for everyone's support, I am now a step closer to getting a transplant, and through this fund I will be able to financially afford it.
The Goal
The first goal is at $5,000 , and already at %40 holy crap! Basically once it hits 5k, I am awarded donation help by HelpHopeLive, and then the next goal is 10k and so on and so on. Just wanted to be clear about that! My final set goal is $20,000 to cover everything - and apparently HHL says thats a low average (holy crap) but thats what I'm shooting for. Already my state has donated $2,000 (Thanks AK!) and everyone online has contributed at least $2,000 on their own. So, if that green status bar goes up and down it's because HHL is changing my goal settings! It only updates once a week and with this influx of help from you amazing people, I think they are getting more then they expected to handle. Wowee! I can't thank everyone enough, but I sure will try my damndest to do it. I can barely keep up with all your love, and it just makes me want to explode. Thank you so much.
Paypal is not accepted
I cannot, and will not accept personal Paypal Payments. I'm sorry. I continue to get notes about this, and I'm sad to say it's not feasable. Please go here if you want to read about why --> neolucky.tumblr.com/post/12762… It's just not acceptable unless you 1.) Have a paypal debit card (Which is free to own) or 2.) Buy a prepaid greendot card. Both would work. But unfortunately direct paypal payments are not available at this time, despite my asking HHL to take them. But thank you so much for your support! I want this to be a transparent fundraiser so you are welcome to ask -any- question should you have them.
After the outpouring of love from Tumblr, I started one myself. I will have a FAQ posted eventually but for now Im answering just about anything over there so please head over! ---> neolucky.tumblr.com/ &nbs… may not be my prim ary art tumblr, but I may crosspost my doodling work there as well as my personal blog.

2 Months out and feelin' fine~
As the title states, it's been about two months since transplant and I am still sort of in disbelief over it. Things are so different now!
I have energy, I'm excited and ready to get back to things I love, and I can give attention and effort more without constant anxiety or depression. I did not realize I was going down a pretty dark road for the past couple of years, I had literally no clue. Every day felt so dismal and the only thing I'd really pay attention to was my dog for his sake alone. I slept so much and would just kind of chill out and be too tired or bored to come online or talk to anyone. I looked sick, I felt sick, but I thought
Kidney Transplant!
As of writing this journal I am officially 10 days out from having an organ transplant. I wanted to wait and make the announcement until I was feeling a bit better. And now I am!
I was called and came into Seattle just 3 hours later, rushed to the Virginia Mason hospital and within minutes I was getting prepped for surgery. The surgery was 5 hours, went well, and I am currently in a long term stay hotel in Seattle. I'll be here for a month total (more if needed) and its still not hit me yet how insane it all sounds.
My organ came from a cadaver donor, is in the top %20 in the nation. After 4 days it is working at peak performance. New medic
Woaaaahhhh... I'm alive!
Hey dudes and dudettes! It's been a long time, no?
So a little bit of an update journal, seeing as I've been pretty quiet and on a little bit of a hiatus from my computer.
1.) I got a puppy!
Holy hell, he's a wonderful little monster and is now nearly four months old. He is a Boston Terrier / French Bulldog mix and really the light of my life, I've never had the chance to bond with an animal quite like this before and it's really gotten me moving around much more. As a result I've lost nearly 30 pounds and I feel physically better then I have in a long time. My twitter has a lot of pictures of him if you're an uber nosey person like I am (
