The transplant surgeon came down to the waiting area, and told us that Jake is out of the operating room, and that the kidney worked (at least on the urine front) as soon as they plugged it in. As soon as we download the firmware upgrade and the service packs, he'll be kicking butt. The hospital's financial services people are all over me on the extended warranty.
The surgeon also stopped by the recovery room to tell Jen, who is apparently groggy but happy.
They will bring him to the pediatric ICU in an hour or so. We'll spend a few days in the ICU and then get sent to a regular room (or home).

That's fantastic news! Prayers to Saint Padre Pio da Pietrelcina have been answered! Please give Jen and Jacob my love. We are holding up the fort here for you, it's all nice and quiet. Waiting for your prompt return.

Rock on. Soon, he will be playing center for the Miami Heat.
Jen and Jacob,
I have been holding you close in my thoughts and prayers today!! You were even penciled in on my lesson plan book.
I love you both so much and rejoice with you as you begin recovering. There are few words to describe our joy as we stand with you as friends and as a school community.
Michele, Brenda , and I were reminiscing today about how blessed we have been to have Jacob as a student!
Remember my promise to you - you have card blanche - anything you want and need until Jake graduates!
Sam(my hubby) sends love and hugs, also, along with me to you, Larry, and your entire family.
Too much to say- too little space.
Love to you all,
Mimi Rutland
Sounds good! If you want to have a picture of a glaring wife or child, you can have some of mine. All the best,
Jeff, Marilyn & Noah
