Title: KidneyforTraci!!!!!

I hope I did this right.  Here is the link to send kidneyfortraci an e-card.  I spoke with a nurse on the transplant floor just now and apparently she's in a "step-down" from due to the fact there were no complications or problems after surgery.  I also just called her room, but she's still out of it, although she's doing good.  I'm not sure who I spoke with but she said Traci's new kidney is producing a lot of urine!   :cheer:    That kidney's is just settling in and making itself at home!

So, send her an e-card.  If the link doesn't work just google Methodist Hospital +Houston.  There are four hospitals and she's at The Methodist Hospital.  As far as your well wishes on IHD, I think she's going to get her laptop tomorrow or Thursday.
