@luna69, I am thrilled to hear that you will be able to donate a kidney to your dad. I can feel your excitement along with a little touch of anxiety and some fear at the prospect of surgery.
I saw your message while I was undergoing my 13th annual liver/kidney check-up. I am living a completely healthy life and I want you to tell your dad that if he follows the doctor's instructions, takes his medications as prescribes, gets routine labs, and makes it a priority to eat heathy diet and stay active that he will have a most enjoyable life.
Luna, Please know that I am thinking about you and have whispered a prayer for authorization and uneventful surgery and recovery for both of you.
Now that I'm back home and healthy - I'm going to be checking in everyday, so let me know if you have any questions.
Life can be good because of organ donors like you ❤
