My BIL just entered UVA hospital today to donate a kidney to a friend. Has waited 10 years for this to finally happen. Wish them both the best of luck.

Your BIL sounds like a VERY GOOD man. It's one thing to be scared sh*&tless because you have no choice, it's another because your doing it to help someone else.

Best wishes and let us know how he does. My cousin recieved a kidney about 5 years ago, he is doing fine and works every day.

Interesting thing about Kidney transplants, the doner has a much tougher surgery than the person getting the kidney. Also, the recipient starts feeling so much better soon after the transplant.

I wish the very best for both of them. I hope it worked out. Let us know.

Mike, glad your sister and nephew are doing well.

And Mark, how's your brother-in-law doing?

Everyone is fine and both have returned to work... just can't shovel snow yet. Local newspaper had a story about it.

We always like to hear good news, and it's good that the newspaper prints some good news, too, instead of just the bad.
