Hi Lorraine I feel your grief over the sudden passing of your friend and also your feelings of consolation . You're right about perspective, life can appear fragile
In the grand scheme of things I know already that what is needed is here already in a world full of the love of people like you and your friends daughter.
This week I have had news that my sister is a tissue match for becoming a kidney donor.
She will have to have further workups as they are called over the coming weeks with a hospital visit in January for more tests. All is looking well for a live kidney transplant which will effectively remove the need for me to have haemo dialysis.

as I did say in an earlier post , one of my sisters has been approved as a match, so all is looking well and if I have a live transplant that will remove the need for haemo dialysis.
on a sad note though , there are some 500 people a year who die because of the lack of kidneys available for transplant.
there is a particular lack in both black and asian groups. anyone wishing to save a life can become an organ donor. google organ donor
