Can you see me dancing on the ceiling! My Beaner Day was June 2, 2020. Our daughter donated a kidney to her 75 yr old father. Anxious and exhilarated at the same time for my son in law and me. We had a slight hiccup when my husband rejected the kidney, which was expected, but Mayo was prepared! After 1 year, both Beaners are back to normal, and my gratitude knows no bounds!
I hesitate to share this, but for knowledge can ge helpful. Mood changes are a temporary possibility, nerve pain is a possibility, realizing a new life is possible is heart lifting!
Tip: having a warm towel available when the recipient steps out of a shower us very much appreciated!🙂 I wish you both well and speedy recoveries, but don’t be alarmed if it doesn’t feel speedy enough some days! It will come!
