I am so excited. A friend's husband is being transplanted right now. He was really having a rough time with diabetes and dialysis. Please pray for him.  :)

I've been getting updates from his wife. It was kind of rough for awhile. The kidney was sleepy. Now they feel there may have been trauma to the kidney. His numbers are looking better. They estimate his function to be 25%. Even with that number it is making a huge impact on how he feels. Thank you so much for asking.
