Dear prayer partners,
Our dear marysecretary had a successful kidney transplant surgery early this morning.
Her pastor reports: "From: Jerry S. Subject: Mary's Surgery Date: Friday, November 6, 2009, It is 4:45 am we just got home the hospital; Marys surgery went well, she now has a new kidney and the doctor seemed please with the results. Thank you very much for your prayers and please keep them up because there is a long road to recovery, also keep Richie in your prayers that he can get some rest. You prayer warriors are much appreciated, may Gods blessing be upon you. Love pastor Jerry"
Please pray for the Lord's hand of healing and renewed health for marysecretary and rest for her family.
To God Alone The Glory!
Mary, how ya doin??? (somebody give her a keyboard.)
Glad to hear you are on the mend! Hurry up and get back here, dear~ :)
God is good!
PRAISE GOD FOR YOUR HEALING MARY AND WE WILL CONTINUE PRAYING FOR IMPROVED HEALTH.
SOLI DEO GLORIA!
Lol. Mary. Take it slow. At least start out with doubles.
Tennis, not pina coladas. 8~)
I agree. Peeing and drinking is the best! But boy, do I have to drink a lot. Whew.
Oh, Mary I am so happy to hear from you. It sounds like you are doing much better! Praise the Lord!!! It’s wonderful that your your new “body-part” is working well. Thanks for touching base. I continue to mention you in my prayers!
Thanks to all of you, my precious FReeper friends and family. I came home after six days and every day I grow stronger and stronger. I was exhausted after surgery but am now feeling truly wonderful. I have a wonderful and faithful God and my husband is doing everything possible to care for me. He’s had to learn all about medications and depends (lol) and cleaning everything all up. He’s my cook and my launderer and just about everything else. He measures my intake and my output. The kidney is working perfectly.
It was difficult to find a match because of all my antibodies, but God did it! They keep cutting back the predisone so I don’t look like the Pillsbury doughboy!
Again, thanks to every one of you for your prayers. I know that’s what did it. Pray that my wound stops leaking and that the water blisters on my legs and feet heal quickly. I gained about 25 pounds of fluid but I’ve lost all but seven pounds of it. I sleep fairly well in my recliner. With my feet and legs ‘bleeding’ fluid, it’s easier to sleep there. God is good and so are YOU. I love you all. Maryxxx
Welcome back, Mary. I’m very glad that you are this much better. I look forward to future discussions (!!!).
See post #148. Mary’s online!!!! PTL!!!!! I don’t have a ping list. :( Can you get the word out?
PRAISE THE KING MOST HIGH FOR YOUR HEALING.
PRAYERS WILL CONTINUE BEING HELD UP FOR YOUR CONTINUED HEALING!
SOLI DEO GLORIA!
I am actually wearing pajamas, no more sitting around in my depends, LOL. I thank God for them but now I’m not freezing. My legs are still leaking fluid but even that is better. I had huge water blisters. Have gone from 215 lbs. to 182 since I’ve been home. Everything is working as it should, praise His Wonderful NAME.
tennis is not on my list of priorities. Peeing is, LOL.
I’m doing great. Walking is about all I can ever handle.
Thank you. It worked.
Thank you. It worked.
Prayers up for your full recovery!
You have long been one of my favorite freepers.
God bless.

Thanks, Lancey. I appreciate that!
Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
Good to see you back Mary...
