Hi All,

My sister Tina (a Type I diabetic for nearly thirty years) had a pancreas transplant on Monday morning! She got a call late Sunday night that a pancreas had become available and off we went. I am happy to report that Tina and pancreas are doing well. Tina is sitting up in bed and will move from the ICU to a private room this afternoon. Today is Tina's birthday.

As a family we are happy, relieved and so very grateful. Please say a prayer for the family who so generously donated their daughter's organs in what was undoubtedly their darkest hour. We will never forget their gift and we know how very lucky we are.

God bless organ donors.

That is fantastic news Laura! Thank you so much for updating us. I am wishing your sister a very quick recovery. I agree with you, God Bless organ donors.

I am wishing you and your sister all the best! :)
