This chapter chronicles the author's narrative following her new hypertension medication routine until her blood pressure met Mayo standards. It details the costs, the hassles, and the barriers to donating a kidney that the author experienced, notably the blood kit shipping glitch, the early arrival of the blood pressure cuff, and having to return the blood pressure apparatus and submit her PAP smear, colonoscopy, and mammogram results. The chapter then shifts to illustrate the results of the committee deliberation after the rigorous process and evaluation the author went through. Finally, the chapter presents the possibility of entering the Kidney Paired Donation program after the author and Deb Porter Gill obtained the results.
