Living Donor Kidney surgery next Tuesday: Any advice?

My thoughts are with you, and your Warrior Mom. My husband and daughter are scheduled for recipient and donor kidney transplants April 15. To date, my husband has not needed dialysis, so here’s hoping...Though you and your Mom have gone through so much, you inspire me, and I am sure, others to keep fighting. Donor pairing was not necessary in our case, but talking about it and sharing with friends has made that possibility important to many. Thank you.
