That led to bronchitis, which attacked my heart muscle, resulting in viral myocarditis &#8211; the inflammation and weakening of the heart muscle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This led to respiratory problems and I was forced to sleep upright for almost a year in order to breathe. It was most uncomfortable. I suffered from oxygen deprivation, fatigue, water retention, bloating and felt bilious much of the time.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">After seeking medical assistance at many hospitals, I was finally referred to Entabeni Hospital, where doctors immediately realised my heart&#8217;s condition was rapidly deteriorating. I was told a heart transplant would be my only option, and I was duly placed on a priority heart transplant list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">My thoughts raced&#8230; I was too young\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">not\u00a0<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">to survive. I had not fulfilled all my expectations and felt I still had much to live for, so I had to muster the strength, courage, and confidence to look fear in the face.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The overwhelming support I received from my husband, family, friends and well-wishers, my prayers, positivity and hopeful outlook helped me find the courage for which I was so grateful. I simply could not afford to give up hope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2712\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-02-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2717\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-08-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Amazingly, just days after being placed on the priority heart transplant list, a donor with my O negative blood type was found in Pretoria. (Only about one in seven people have this blood type.)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Someone whose name I did not know, whose voice I had never heard, was willing to help me. A person I had not so much as seen a photo of, had given me a vital second chance to live and fulfil my dreams and aspirations!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That night, I underwent a successful heart transplant under the skilful hands of Mr Robbie Kleinloog and his incredible team. The results were marvelous. I was relieved of nausea and bloatedness, I could sleep lying flat on my bed and enjoyed being able to breathe normally again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Then, six months after my successful heart transplant, I became blind for almost three months. Doctors, both nationally and internationally, put it down to optic neuritis, which is the inflammation of the optic nerve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With the guidance of my neurologist, ophthalmic surgeon and the intake of up to sixteen steroids a day, I was relieved to regain my sight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2711\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-01-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Following my transplant recovery and the period of blindness, my husband and I began to pick up our lives where we&#8217;d left off. We were so grateful for the reprieve I&#8217;d been given.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">I was advised at this stage not to fall pregnant due to high-risk factors that could cause a strain on my new heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The other worry was that the heart medication could lead to foetal and birth abnormalities. My hubby and I were not comfortable with the idea of adoption, but surrogacy was in the pipeline. Fertility treatment was scheduled for October. But then the unbelievable happened&#8230; In August I discovered I was six weeks pregnant. Under the close supervision of my gynaecologist, cardiologist and cardiothoracic surgeon, the pregnancy was allowed to progress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In trepidation and confusion, yet inescapable excitement, I managed to sustain the pregnancy, and after 38 weeks of relatively plain sailing, my bouncy baby girl arrived by cesarean section at St Augustine&#8217;s Hospital. We decided to name her Netanya, which means God\u2019s Gift.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What more could I have asked for? So much, which I might otherwise not have experienced, had been made possible by a heart transplant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2716\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-07-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2715\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-06-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2714\" src=\"https:\/\/hero777.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Image-resize-04-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">My sincere and heartfelt gratitude is extended to my donor, whose caring is reflected in his signing of a donor card &#8211; a significant act which has given me life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Transplants are so successful that many people could be considered for such treatment, but instead, every day more critically-ill patients are added to the lengthy waiting list. Unfortunately, this list is growing faster than the availability of organs because there are simply not enough donors. As a result, thousands of people who might have survived had they been given a transplant, end up dying annually.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">So why not consider donating your organs and give life to someone like me?
