There are some encouraging developments with regard to longtime Jefferson Starship guitarist Slick Aguilar‘s quest to receive a liver transplant. The 58-year-old rocker, who found out late last year that he needed the life-saving operation, posted a message on his official Facebook page last week revealing that he got some good news from his doctors.
“I was told that I am now first in line for a transplant for my blood type whenever the next liver becomes available,” Aguilar reports.
However, Slick also reveals that there’s a negative side to his situation. “My blood type is B-[minus], which is kind of rare,” he explains. “So, even though I am now at the top of the list, it could still take a while before a B-[minus] liver becomes available. Could be tomorrow — could be 6 months.”
Aguilar, whose condition forced him to stop touring with Jefferson Starship, admits that he has mixed feeling about the impending surgery.
