I knew that I needed to educate myself about his disease and join a support group because I wasn't copying too well with the news. So I gladly found this great support group and joined (thank you for letting me be a part of it) The truth is that I have never posted here but I have always read and found very helpful all the postings I have received in my email. I am writing because I am sitting in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit waiting area and felt like sharing my family's joy. Today the amazing Liver Transplant Team at the NY Presbyterian Hospital with Dr Tomoaki Kato in charge, are giving life back to my father.We never thought this day would come but it did, sooner than what we expected. I'll never forget the call we received yesterday at 10 am we couldn't believe it, specially my dad. I believe that we are truly blessed to have found a donor for my dad. I thank the person that in life decided to become a donar of his organs to save other peoples lives. I personally am going to do the same. I feel heart broken and sad for the family that today are suffering this big loss. May God bless them and help them through this difficult time. My most sincere condolences. I just want you to keep this family in your prayers. I just came back from seeing my father, his surgery lasted 6 1/2 hours. He's in the SICU recovering ,the doctors said the surgery was a success, now he has a beautiful healthy liver. I whispered to him because even though he seemed he couldn't listen I have a feeling he does. I can't wait for him to recover. I wanted to tell members that are on the waiting list not to give up, soon you'll be getting that call that will change your life. I personally hope my dad recovers and doesn't reject the new organ. I'm scared but I believe God is going to help him. It's all in his hands. Thank you for listening. My first language is not English.I hope you could understand me well. Never lose faith Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android Sent from Yahoo!
