I just talked to her. She is settled in her room and her sister in law is in the room next to hers.  She sounds less nervous today than she did at home.  She doesn't have to do dialysis tonight and that really made her happy.  She really didn't want to do that tonight.   Irene, s-in-l, goes into surgery  tomorrow around 6:30 and then Kelly around 7:30.  She said she should be in ICU by 1.   She said it helps being at the hospital and meeting the doctors and nurses.  She sounded very upbeat and excited for this amazing event that is about to happen.   And, bless her heart, she is worried about all of you!  She knows we are all praying for her.  She wanted to know how Cheree and Anna were doing.  I'll update if I hear more!

I hope you will feel a difference after the transplant like I did. Hard to explain, but I felt a difference, sort of like I was cleaner inside.
Good Luck tomorrow Kelly!

I have been pacing the floors all morning.  Her husband, Charles, is suppose to call or email me at some point.  Kelly also told him how to post on IHD, so we'll all be looking for word from him.   She said if he posts in the wrong place, please move it to the right section  :rofl;   She is always worrying about everyone else!
