The Wait

The very next day, Yasmin got word that she was active on the list. This was really good news for her, because her condition was very time sensitive. Her mother explained that she was a top priority in the super urgent list for lung transplants but it would still take about 11 days for the lungs to become available for her.

Yasmin explained that the waiting game was the most difficult during the nights, since she usually overheard a lot of the calls informing patients of their match in the evenings or in the early morning hours.
