re: My son gets a new lease on life tomorrow

Congrats and good luck. My aunt and uncle both got theirs in the past 3 years (both went into renal failure while escaping Vietnam). Been on dialysis since the 80s and highly compliant with it and their dietary habits and all. Although both transitioned to home dialysis so they could work, it's Life changing.

Hope the surgery and the next few years run smoothly for you and your son.
