Please let us know how things are going Worriedman. And thanks for your service to America. Bless you all. Be Well, RZ.

It’s about a 5-6 hour surgery, two teams in tandem O/R suites.
Hoping all is proceeding smoothly.

It will be 20 years this spring since I donated to a friend. I don't think his ex-wife will ever forgive me.  Best wishes.

Worriedman,
I can see why you have chosen that handle having gone through so much.
I'm going to talk to the same God right now, Who healed my sprained ankle miraculously last night and got me home safe, about her. I will trust that He will get your girl through this challenge safely as well.
Feel free to PM anytime.
Blessings and comfort to you and your daughter.
Happy Camper

Threads like this make me realize how very fortunate I am.
Prayers sent for all involved. This Wife called a little bit ago and said I have bad news. Her tone was pretty ominous and it really spooked me. A show that we had been planning on taking the kids to in Arizona got canceled. I told her that was Nothing. No big deal. We too are very very fortunate My best to you and your family worriedman through all this.

Will do
Been there; done that. Got my anti rejection meds right on my knee getting ready to take them. And then headed to a deer stand. Life goes on.
PKD is a nasty sombitch, still have my natives, theyre big as 2-liter soda bottles, and they get grumpy.
Not even my Vandy nephrologists are well versed in the nuances of all the little manifestations and presentations of PKD, it’s also a vascular disease too. I get annoyed educating MDs.
I have only been warmly, barely impressed with Vandy post-transplant care. Certainly a step up that shîthole St Thomas West down the way. I told pre transplant patients in the waiting room at st thomas, get up and run for your lives, go to Mayo in Jacksonville or Vandy.
Vandy has that new 6th floor completely dedicated transplant wars. I was in there for a refresher 3 weeks ago. Fresh paint, no wires sticking out of the wall, all the nurses are hot, exercise chicks. No fat, grumpy groids like the other Nashville hosptials.
All the best Do you know Tony Langone there? He is top flight in my book. We can get an ugly with the wife and I will text him and he gets us in the back of ER quick, (drive from Bells, takes me 1:45 plus he is a solid conservative. Wife bitches that he spends 10 minutes with her and a half hour with me when we go every three months...we dog cuss the RINOs at the GA pretty soundly. He knows I am West TN Director of the Tennessee Firearms Association and agrees with our mission.

Is the youngest daughter the one getting the transplant today from the teacher today?
Or has the oldest one had an organ match come up?
I have 3 kids, I’m not getting them tested yet till we get some 30 year term life locked in before pre existings are noted. I became uninsurable at age 39 after testing and genetic markers.
Oh well, at age 21, instead of buying carburetors and glass pack mufflers and grubbing all my money at Sonic like cecil 30/30 or catman, I bought life term insurance. In another year, I’ll outlive the policy. 👍 Youngest daughter is getting the transplant, oldest could never control her weight, or would not, she is a big girl and has been on dialysis 10+ years and they did not take her parathyroids out, resulting in her bone loss. She is not on the list as her other health issues do not allow. She is 48 and her life expectancy is not great. Youngest daughter is getting the new kidney quick enough to forestall a lot of those other problems, plus she is driven to keep her weight down. Wife had to have a native taken out last year, one of the polyps went cancerous. That was a lot of fun...

The power of prayer has been evident to me for a very long time.. among other things, my wife's niece, who is a real sweetheart has Cystic Fibrosis and is now 22 years old thanks to the life saving skill of two teams of surgeons who have performed her two double lung transplants... and she never complains a bit about her life...
The skills God bestows on these surgeons and the generosity of families to donate these organs is awesome and the power of prayer to lift them all up is a gift... prayers sent...
Bob
