The Craftsman and his family.

So I just read on "Am I a Funny Girl" (libismorgan.blogspot) that theCraftsman's wife is back on dialysis. Her newish kidney, being only 4 years old, failed. She had been in ICU for some time and was receiving subclavial perma-cath dialysis and will need 3X weekly visits to the clinic....and I'm pretty bummed about it all.

But with this quote from her blog you can see that her strength is simply amazing:

"To preemptively answer a couple of questions; yes, it's true... we had hoped the kidney from my mom would last longer than four years... it didn't. Yes, my (new) kidney failure was exacerbated by my pregnancy and pre-eclampsia. No, we don't regret doing the transplant when we did. Jamie and I got four amazing years... we bought our house and remodeled the kitchen, took roadtrips, got married, went to Europe and had a baby. Nope, I don't think I could ever say I regret getting the transplant when I did."

She now needs a new kidney and I suppose one of us can do without one if it can potentially save some one's life...so pass this around. You (and perhaps even I) can be a donor match.

Prayers and well wishes are on the way.
