We have a kidney!
In fact, we have 2! We had 5 AMAZING people who volunteered to be tested. 2 passed the initial screening. Of those 2 BOTH were matches! One scored slightly higher as a better match for Daniel, so we are starting with her. Her name is Kelle. (Jimmy is our other donor.) Anyhow, both of them are incredible in their willingness to help a complete stranger! We did not know either of them before all this started! Anyhow, Kelle has a few tests to have done on her blood and an evaluation at Stanford and hopefully things will be OK. We are blessed to have a 'back up' if something happens with Kelle's work up. Anyhow, the transplant will happen soon! When? We don't know exactly yet. We have to wait for Kelle's things and then Daniel needs to get his Echocardiogram done. Then we wait for nephrology to say....GO! Which, at our appointment last month they said they wnat to have it done by Sept 1st if we could. So I think they'll get us in there as soon as everything is ready! We are just amazed at the miracles we've seen and been able to participate in throughout this whole process. We are grateful to those of you who have prayed and fasted on Daniel's behalf. Please know that we know that they are been heard and answered! We avoided at least 3 surgeries that I can think of off the top of my head and many other 'little' witnesses along the way. Thank you!
