I was told that it's called a Mercedes because it looks like one model of the car and costs just as much. **David**

I would say mine is more like a T with the top part actually much longer than the bottom line and the T is laying down on its side so that the its bottom points away from my stomach. I think mine turned out this way because a lot of my old scars wer…

Hey Maria

Just sifting through my TX Cafe messages and see you sent me a message on Oct 31 which I forgot to reply to. Will def be paying more attention to my account from now on!

Kidney is still going strong, glad to report. I had a bit of a scare just before Xmas, but luckily all is well again. I'm going for bloods again this friday, let's hope those blood levels are totally kicking ass! Yip, that's right- my mom did give me her precisious kidney. And she is doing great! She always reminds me of how happy she is to see me doing so well. Bless her! :)

How are things on your side?

Hi Maria:
Thank you for your compliment on my transplant picture. My husband thought of it and gave a disposible camera to one of the transplant surgical residents and they said they would be happy to take pictures for us.

HI Maria

Yeah, weather is really warming up nicely here in South Africa. Summer is on the way- YES PLEASE :)

So an accounts student too, cool (although if truth be told, I'm not too sure how cool accounting is!). Where are you working @ the moment. And how much time are you taking off before you start work again? Or have you already started?

Hope things have gone smoothly since Aug 14th. I'm feeling really good post op (remember, I had my kidney transplant 2 days before your liver op). All the best...

Happy Birthday Maria! Just wanted to say hi and welcome you to the Cafe! Our stories are similar. I had acute liver failure and woke up with with a new liver! Docs still don't know what happened to mine. Isn't it crazy how your life can change that quickly? Life is amazing though and I'm SO glad you received your gift of life. If you'd ever like to chat, let me know. I hope you had a fabulous day of celebrating your birthday :) How's your recovery going?
