I hope that he is recovering with his replacement liver.

He's on a slow path to recovery, on dialysis. About five months ago my sister and brother-in-law went on a cruise ship. He was healthy for a 70-year-old, no problems. They came back and all of a sudden he got sickly. Admitted to hospital and then into ICU, his liver failing. He was put on a transplant list. Other organs beginning to shut down, including his kidneys. He was near death when he got the liver transplant, but his kidneys were so messed up from the toxins in his body that he was put on dialysis until his kidneys recover. He went back home after a month, but my sis has to take him to dialysis treatments constantly for months ahead. He still does not know what triggered his problems. Could happen to anyone, and is scary. Just after return from the cruise, they got evacuated from the Sonoma fires, almost lost their home. They've had their share of misfortune lately.
