Title: Kidney Match/Donor News
Post by: Victoria05202000 on June 12, 2009, 03:17:46 PM
 :-\  Well...it is a no go for the transplant. My donor who is only 25 found out he only has had one working kidney....probably been like that his whole life. That is proof there that you only need one kidney!  His function is near perfect in the one that works and he his healthy as a horse otherwise.

I am very disappointed, but not discouraged.

Thanks for all your support.

Oh Vicki...I'm so sorry that this donor was not able to work out for the transplant...but it gives me faith in the human race when I read that people are willing to do something like this for another person...related or not!

Please hang in there...it will happen for you...and your positive attitude and good nature will help bring you through it...and of course...we are always here for you if you need us!

Keep us updated.....sending lots of hugs to you my friend!

Vicky,
   I'm disappointed, too.  He just wasn't the right donor.   We will pray for the right one to turn up soon.
