Awesome Kriss.  I know this is hard for you because of your love for him.  It just hurts to sit and watch them go through it.  But hopefully, once this gets straightened out then you can concentrate on the next thing to be taken care of.  All you can do is approach it one day at a time.  But please Kriss, make time for yourself.  Be there for him, but get out of it for awhile too!  He has to respect that for you. He is glad that you are there for him, but I bet, he would like for you to do other things not Kidney or health related.

You are doing outstanding job Kriss.  Try not to stress too much and ask lots of questions of the medical experts.
You are not alone in this as you well know!  We are here with you girl!

God Bless,

UPDATE So today my hubbyy said he felt tingles in his toes and it wouldn't go away he said his shoulder felt tired like he had been lifting weights. The doctors told him that if he felt those sensations that he should go to the ER. He is at the Er now he has a room and I had to go to work I felt bad but I had to go, they have my phone numbers. They were doing a EKG on his heart to make sure things were ok. He thinks he might stay overnight. I will keep you guys posted.

Hey All!

His left eye hasn't cleared up as the Doc would like so he is going in to remove the rest of the blood.
 We had a feeling this would happen. His appointment is set for May 9th in the morning,so it would take about two weeks to see weather or not it will clear up I'am a bit nervous as usual.... I feel now all our cards our on this operation to go well. I think it will the doctor thinks so. Oh and I also went to UCLA Sunday and gave blood to see if me and hubbs are compatible six more days until we know for sure. :)
