Total Excrement!!

i'm so relieved to hear good news...i can't imagine how YOU feel!! i hope she's going to get stronger every day. how long will she have to be in the hospital?
 
Thanks again everyone. It has been such a mix of emotions for me and the rest of the family. We are so overjoyed, but we are also worried and scared for her. The recovery time is actually really hard on organ recipients.

She said that she should be in the ICU unit for at least 7 days and then from there, they will see how much longer she will have to stay in the hospital. It is during this time, that she is extremely susceptible to illness, since they are pumping her full of anti-rejection meds. These meds totally negate any immune system she may have had.

Once again, thanks for letting me spew all this here and for all the well wishes. You folks are not so bad after all. ;)
