Finally, I have the date for my kidney transplant operation. Wednesday, 30th May. My dad is my donor. Finally, the anxiety of waiting is over.  I'm scared, but so glad at the same time. Now I have a time frame, I can try to plan getting my life back together. |

Your Father is a brave and wonderful man who loves his daughter. I hope and pray all goes well for both of you. When you wake up you will be able to drink milk and pee. Ahhhhhhh The simple things of life.
I'm going to sticky this because this is probably the thread you will be posting in for us to follow your progress.

Aww, you're all awesome and I'll keep you updated. 4 weeks is so soon, yet so far away! (Probably feels far away because I'm nauseous today).  I am super pleased that I have managed to avoid dialysis, can't believe how lucky I am on that front. I guess I deserve SOME luck - we all do! |

Truly wishing all goes well and swiftly for you and your special father. Honestly, I didn't want to post initially because these stories make me jealous but I am very happy that you will get to see Slayer again without having done dialysis. I know you will keep us current. Best wishes for you, George
