Matt's got a new heart (and kidney!)

Donation protected
So this happened! Yay.  I've been waiting on a new heart for a while now, and a kidney to go with it.  I thought maybe it wasn't going to happen, but here I am.  I'm thankful and hopeful for the future.
I've created this GoFundMe because it was requested by some of you.  I have insurance through my employer, but with a rather large out-of-pocket.  We've anticipated this, so times are a little lean, but that's ok.  I've gone ahead and created this for the people that wanted to help out, maybe pitch in for the expenses that aren't health insurance related, like my family traveling back and forth, hospital stays, gas, and the slew of new restrictions and medical aids I'm going to need going forward.  I picked an arbitrary dollar amount that's just a little higher than our deductible/out-of-pocket costs to pick up some of this stuff.
I don't want anyone to feel obligated, and we are appreciative of the offers for assistance, and that's why this page exists.
I've added some of my post-op pictures, that aren't very sexy...  Now all fingers are crossed that recovery goes well.
Thank you all so much.
