Hello New Kidney, Goodbye Dialysis!

Eight months later, I was blessed to get new kidney from a baby (Thanks to You, My Donor). It was in March of 2006 (3am) when I got a call from Medical City saying that they've found a donor that would possibly be a perfect match for me. I was very happy and thank my Heavenly Father for GREAT blessing and an advanced birthday present for me since my birthday was ten days away. Hubby and I got up early, went to the hospital and waited for the result whether the kidney was a match or not. There were three of us there waiting which one of us will be getting the kidney. Fortunately, I was the one who perfectly match the donors kidney! We were elated...so after eight hours of waiting, finally was admitted and wheeled me to my room where I waited for the surgery to be done. The surgery lasted for hours and thank goodness, the kidney started working already! I stayed at the hospital for more than a week, then went home.
