I am looking for information and actual
photos of the transplant procedure for
both donor and receipient. What are
possible complications other than the
usual with anesthia, blood clots, failure
etc. Want information on what to expect
during and after. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

My mother donated her kidney to me in dec
01. She went through a considerable
amount of pain but she is a very tough
lady. As for me I was home in 4 days and
the onyl complaint I have is prednisone
and it's side effects. The process was
far from easy for her but there was
turning her bravery away and certainly no
way to blunt my desperation. I am
eternally thankful to her as it is...This
just makes the list of thank yous even
longer :-)

Hi Lizzylou,
I successfully had a kidney transplant in
March of 2006. Please feel free to send me
a private message if you have any question
or concerns, I'll be glad to talk to you.
