My father, who has been on dialysis since after my wedding last year, just got a call from Mt. Sinai saying that they may have a kidney for him! It's between him and one other person. The woman wasn't sure who was first on the donor list. My parents are waiting to hear back, and will then go into the city. If he is the recipient, he will have a kidney transplant tomorrow morning.

Please pray that my father gets this kidney. Thank you!!

Thank you so much everyone. My dad is doing well so far, so all of your thoughts and prayers have worked. They had him sitting up today and walking, and he seems to be in good spirits.

On the downside, I just discovered that I have a low fever, and I'm really worried I could have passed something on to my dad today.

Thanks again to all of you. You're the best!
