Great news Donna. I had a sister go through a Kidney transplant, with another sister being the donor. It's quite an ordeal with the rejection, infection risk and so on. I didn't know about small intestine transplants either. Very cool because the alternative is not!! Keep us posted and we'll keep praying.

Excellent news! So glad to hear things are looking up for the better. Be assured of my continued prayers.

May Mike may be blessed with an exceptional match, a successful surgery and a speedy recovery.

Exclamation MIKE JUST GOT 'THE CALL'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike will be getting his transplant at 3pm EDT today...an organ became available last night and his transplant team is on a plane at this moment to pick it up...
I am shaking so hard right now that I can hardly type or breathe...
Please pray real hard that he survives this surgery which is very risky and very long...
Please pray real hard that his body accepts the organ and that the transplant is a success...
Thank you all very much...
This is it!!!...I will be praying and waiting all day and night until I get word that he is ok...

Thanks, Bonnie...I am sitting here crying like a baby...I am soooo scared for him right now, but I have to have faith that God isn't ready to take him yet...he has been to hell and back for the last 4 yrs with this...I hope his long nightmare is finally over and he can reclaim his life and his health....all the money in the world means nothing if you don't have your health...I know, because I have been sick for the past 3 yrs (a very long story)

Prayers sent, Donna. I will continue to keep him (and you!) in my thoughts. I know how much he means to you. You're a special friend.

Thanks so much...I am crying so hard right now I can't see or type straight...
I wish I had called him yesterday, but I wanted to wait until today because it was Election Day yesterday and I didn't want to disturb him and his girls being home from school with him...

Donna, I'm sure he knows you were thinking about him. Is there someone in his family who can give you updates?

We have very good doctors. How long is the procedure?
12+ hrs!!!

I probably won't know anything until tomorrow at the earliest...

I am going crazy here in NY while he is in Virginia...

I just spoke to one of his friends that I met at the Chevy dealership last yr when Keith and I went there to pick up the Camaro...
His friend told me to call tomorrow, because Mike's brother-in-law has been keeping them up to date so far...
Sooooooo, it's gonna be a long day and night until I hear some news....

Well, we're all here for you in the "virtual waiting room" so I'll keep my fingers crossed that good news comes soon!
