I'm assuming that they weren't able to harvest your friend's brother's kidneys for your friend? Wow, that really sucks. I'm not yet on dialysis, but my function is low enough that it could happen any week now. I have labs again this week; fingers crossed that they will be stable.
Yep, it was too late to get the kidneys. My friend had ONE kidney barely functioning for years. I really wish you good luck. Pray hard is all I'll say. Knowing you to be the sincere individual you are, I'm sure you'll pull through it pretty well.
