okay,so one day I'm going to need or get before I'm really sick a new heart.
so a few months ago I met this girl who had a heart transplant and she said to call her if I wanted to talk about it anymore but I had no other questions and we have not really heard much else about it all yet.
but sometimes I think about it and freak out a tiny bit, so my question is should i call her to talk when i think about it, even though i have no real questions yet or wait until we know more about it?

If you need some reassuring, call her, and just tell her you're freaked out and want someone to talk to, someone who's been through it.

Make the call.

Call.

I would say that it really depends on what YOU want the relationship to be.  There isn't anything wrong with calling her just to chat.  Another friend at this time is only going make it better for you!  As she has been in this ordeal before, she would be a valuable support asset to you.  So why don't you do both?  Call her with any questions you have now AND call her later when you have more details about your specific procedure.

My PM box is always open if you would like to message me and talk further.

Call her whenever you feel the need to, you don't always have to have a question, you can just for comfort and reassurance.

What? Is this rocket science? You met someone who has experienced what you might have to experience. She says call me if you ever want to talk. Sometimes you feel like you want to talk to her. Ok, I've laid it out for you. See if you can put the pieces together from there. Ok?
