God is Good. :)

Hey everyone! Quick update.

She got her kidney! AND a pancreas.

We got notified at 2:30 this morning (Friday) that she was a match and after they notified us...they whisked her off to the OR within 10 minutes. It was quick!

They started at 2:30...and at 6:00 a.m. they had finished transplanting the pancreas...and by 10:30 a.m. they had finished with the kidney.

Our prayers have been answered.

Even as they were "closing her up", she was already starting to produce urine (which she has not produced in a LONG time due to her lack of function of her current kidneys). THIS IS AWESOME!

She went through surgery with flying colors...and she's currently in ICU (where she'll stay 3-7 days (approximately)).

I want to thank EVERYONE who prayed for Savonna and our family. Not only our family...but the family of the 16-year old boy who was on life support long enough to donate 8 of his organs. We are truly thankful.

GOD BLESS! For He is so good.
