Seeking information

My 25 yr old daughter is on the heart transplant list at U of Washington in Seatlle.  She's doing well now that she has a monitor, device that shocks the heart and especially the heart pump (a God send).  I'm anxious and looking for good reliable information.  (Tin Man I'd love to get the material you mentioned at Utah).  Any help that I need as I begin to understand the process would be appreciated.  Thanking you in advance.  Dad JoeSee More
