I want to find out the birthday of the donor. Then on that day, I will have about a 2 minute birthday celebration for the kidney with a cupcake or something, since that is about the ratio of me that will be having a birthday on that day.
..... oh, and I'd be very thankful as well. I can't offer him much, but I'd love to take him and his family out for dinner.

I had actually just started playing basketball again this past week since my dialysis surgery. I'll have to put that back on hold so I don't mess up something before the surgery. The interesting part of playing basketball while on peritoneal dialysis is that I surprise the heck out of people because I don't look like I can ball at all (not that I'm great, but I'm a better defender than I am a scorer). I'm carrying about 2 liters of extra dialysis liquid in my peritoneal cavity at any given moment, so I have an artificially stretched out belly and then I have a foam pad that is about 1.5 inches thick over my belly, so I look like I can't move. However, I still have strong legs from my sprinting days. My endurance is currently very poor, so I usually guard the slower guys, but when there is a switch on a screen, I see the guards' eyes light up thinking they have a major mismatch but it is never the easy drive to the hoop that they think it will be.

I'm scheduled to have surgery on July 23rd, so my move to Cali will be somewhat delayed.
this is awesome news!
i have a sister-in-law who is an extremely bad diabetic and has kidney failure. she has started dialysis this year and her doctor has recommended her to be put on the list for a kidney. sad news is that she had gotten pregnant and lost her baby just last week. if u could, please PM me your situation. i would like to pass it along to her.

If she is on dialysis, she should definitely be on a transplant list IMO. I was on a list way before I started my dialysis.
