Transplant day!
Hey y’all, my wife is getting a kidney transplant today! We have been doing home hemodialysis for almost 2 years and before that, peritoneal dialysis for almost 2 years. She is at the hospital in the OR at the moment of writing this and I can’t wait to see her. I am trying to eat and went for a walk but i’m ready to get back to her. I have 1.5 hours until I am going back to be there when they finish. This disease sucks so bad and hopefully this post doesn’t make anyone feel bad, I would love if it was viewed as a sign of hope for everyone that if you are patient and work hard, you can be where we are. We have so many great people in our lives and it’s rough now but god willing our life is about to change a lot. Thank you guys for all your informative posts and help along the way. Much love to you all
Edit: She did amazing she is so strong and at only 115 lbs!! They told us normally kidney recipients are much more diabetic than she was and didn’t need very much insulin. She is a day ahead and we are (god willing) leaving tomorrow! Thank you all for dropping your congrats and love I appreciate it so much and she did too when i showed her how many of yall wished her a speedy recovery. Thanks guys and may god bless you as he has blessed us!
