How long have you been waiting for a kidney transplant?

How long have you been on the waiting list for a kidney transplant? Maybe you have had ‘the call’ – what was that like? Why not share how you have coped with the wait, and what you do to stay ‘transplant-ready’.

My renal consultant informed me that the average wait for third kidney transplant is eight years because of my antigens. I wonder if any of you have similar experience? My first transplanted kidney lasted twenty years, second one lasted six and half years.
