That's an amazing story about your niece - I've never heard of that before - do the new valves have a certain lifespan, is that why she has had multiple transplants? It must be hugely stressful for your family each time. It's great to be on 'the other side of the kidney' as we call it, we're gearing up for a major bladder operation sometime soon - not sure of dates yet, but in the meantime Boy Wonder is charming his way through school and generally keeping us all on our toes! <br />Take care and keep visiting,<br />Cheers,<br />AnnAnnBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13234041798702329756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391358548319943099.post-8871320056874539322011-06-11T00:34:41.654+01:002011-06-11T00:34:41.654+01:00Hi Ann,

My oldest niece, 17yrs next month, would not be here today with out a heart valve transplant. She's had 3 so far, 2 human & 1 pig & is looking at another in the next few years. <br />All the best to you & your amazing family.<br />KarenKaren TDnoreply@blogger.com
