I just wanted to thank those of you who have left comments and emailed me with your wishes for my recovery. It means a lot to know that so many people care.
Also, I hope I have been helpful to those of you who have emailed me questions about donating. I know that the transplant teams provide you with information, but I think talking to someone who has been through the whole process can make you feel more comfortable with your decision. Just reading through the forums on livingdonorsonline.org was a big help to me.
It is officially 1 month since surgery and we are both doing very well.
If anyone would like to send me stories of their transplant experience, please do.
And, finally, to any new donors, welcome to the Kidney Club!

My Story
I recently became a living donor. On January 18, 2008, I donated one of my kidneys and wanted to be able to share the experience with anyone interested. I had many questions leading up to our surgery and would like to help anyone out there who may be thinking about the process. While only you can decide if live donation is for you, I will gladly answer questions pertaining to my experience. This blog is my way to increase knowledge of kidney disease and to share my experience as a living donor.

Lisa,
Thanks! It was good to see everyone at the shower Sunday and I am actually excited to come back to work next week. Gotta make the money to pay my taxes!
See you next week.
