well as most of you know i have finally had my transplant and both me and my donor are doing well!!!! on the day of the op i had a few minor slip ups, i had to have plasma and dialysis! i was actually worried that the surgery wouldnt take place then at 4pm i was summoned to theatre. On the way down to the theatre i see my surgeon and boy was he relaxed!!! 20mins before he was due to slice me up i see him wandering in to the staff room with a coffee and chocolate muffin, i mean talk about chilled oh jus doing a transplant in 30mins, fuck it course i've got time for a drink and a bit to eat!!!
So after about 4hours i wake up in recovery and too my left i see a very dazed and confused mum, who is in a lot of pain!! and i can feel a strange sensation between my legs a feeling that i hadnt felt for about 2years, I WAS PEEING and not just a bit i pissing for England and by the end of the 22nd november i had broken the record for the most amount of urine passed in 24 hours, i peed a record 36LITRES, yeah so for someone who was used to peeing less then 100ml a day to that much was proper funny.
After the surgery mum and i were brought back to our respective wards, mum was exhuasted and i was full of beans so much so that i played a practical joke on dad, jess and clare. When they came to see me after the op i pretended to be asleep and when leant in to say hello i sat up and shouted HELLO at them, they were so suprised.....
Just a few more little detail on the kidney itself, it is doing really well and at the last set of result the readings were as follows creatinine 1500 now less than 250, Urea 30 now 8, antibody count is now 0, meaning this kidney should not reject.
right off to see mum for the first time now.
Peace, Love and Transplated Organs
The One In A Million Man
