Re: Surgery for Home Noctural Dialysis?

Thank you all for replying, Pierre, Cy, , and all,

Tuesday, October 11---With tears in my eyes, I never expected the possible

transplant idea: I'm usually praying for others for their transplants. After

being on a transplant list for 5 years with Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF),

we received a call from the transplant center, Tuesday, 1:10 a.m., that they had

a kidney for Gordon; twelve hours later, about 2 p.m., surgery began. He's on

strong anti-rejection meds and the medical team is positive about his body's

acceptance. Supposedly, he will be on Cellcept instead of prednisone for one of

the long-term anti-rejection meds.

And on that very day wanting to be a possible donor for her dad, our daughter

received her initial tissue-typing kit; she's continuing with the process.

Gordon's donor was a brain-dead person and we are very grateful for this

anonymous donor and the family.

IHN, Phyllis & Gordon

Oh Phyllis,

I am rejoicing with you that Gordon received such a wonderful gift! Please

let him know he is in my prayers for a speedy recovery.

Blessings to you both,
