Day 1326: Successful surgery

Our cousin Michael and his daughter Rebecca came through the kidney transplant surgery successfully!  Rebecca went first at 8:00 am and was in surgery for two hours.  Then Mike went in at 9 and was in surgery for four hours.  Both are resting now, as is the family who waited, paced, fretted and prayed all day and night.  The best news is the kidney is functioning!  Now, Mike has a chance to live a long and happy life.

Jane was so afraid she would lose her son at just 53 years old.  Her husband, Eddie, was killed in a terrible elevator accident at just 54 years old.  Now, a gift of life, relief and joy.  There will be a long recovery, anti-rejection drugs and and complications, but hope replaces fear.
