Heart transplant

Hi, I'm Tiana and am 21 years old and this is my story: throughout my life I always had some type of stomache problem. I grew up being on diets, going to a doctor to help find out the situation. By my sophomore year in high school, they thought it would be a good idea to see if I developed some type of heart problem due to stomach pain, chest pain, and fatigue. Being a dancer, this was the last thing I wanted. My mom at the age of 26 had developed a heart disease called cardiomyopathy and was then transplanted, so testing me was a way of reassuring I did not have what my mom had. After some testing, they came to the realization that it is hereditary and I would one day need a transplant. This day has came! As of September 2015, I have been developing stronger symptoms but continued to stay strong. I have had many of procedures done and have had two different types of surgery. As of now, I am anxiously waiting for my perfect match in the CICU. Being the strong girl I am I ask you all for help to get me through hard times. All I can do is go day by day and hope that I have the support. After transplant, I am determined to go back to work after months and months of rehab, but in the mean time from medical bills to regular bills I am sadly not able to afford this. Thank you to all for your support and remember, anyone can make it through hard times no matter what. Always keep your head strong.
