Oh, gosh! Thanks! To answer your question, I have often joked that the whole experience was like Serv-Pro: like it never even happened. I bounced back VERY quickly from my liver donation surgery, thank God, and was even running again within 2-3 weeks of surgery. It was lovely to be off work and at home, recovering, feeling good, and enjoying the Spring weather! When I donate my kidney on March 25th (just found out this morning that the surgery date got pushed back by one day), I am looking forward to being off again for six weeks, coming back to work sometime in May, and then retiring on June 30! God is good- ALL the time! <3

@mauraacro @lwilkey and @rebekahinvt, what accommodations did your employers make for you? Did you get paid leave? Did you have to use your vacation time? Did they celebrate you in any way for your incredible giving of life?
