Thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart. Everything went wonderful!!!

He had told us before the surgery that the mapping didn't really show a really good vein. After he got in there and hooked the vein and artery together...he said he couldn't have asked for better. Blood flowing beautifully, she has no pain....so far. It took a bit longer than we thought, but the outcome was way better.

I take her back next week for him to check it out and then hopefully she won't need dialysis for at least 3 months. That's how long it need to be so it will heal the best. All the prayers worked and I'm so thankful!!

Janet,

Thats great news. I'll keep your mom in my prayers. So glad it turned out for the best. Tell your mom hello for me. :thumbup:

Great news! Glad to hear it went so smoothly and was so successful!

So glad that things went well!! Thank you for letting us know so quickly. Take care.

I'm happy to hear that things went well!

I just finished talking with her and asked why she was sounding a little out of breath...my mom...sometimes I just want to smack that woman...LOL...she was hauling stuff out to her camper...she's going camping this weekend. I just reminded her to take it slow and you know what she said to me???? "yes mother"


I really am grateful that she can do all this and as long as she can...I'm not gonna stop her.

Your Mom certainly keeps you on your toes, Janet!!! I'm glad that she's feeling well, but shouldn't she be taking it easy for awhile?

Sounds like my mom.. a spunky woman who thinks she has to do it all by herself!

Duh...yeah!!! It just doesn't do any good to get on to her. Since no one is there to watch her...she'll do what she wants. Even if someone was there...she'd wait till they weren't looking. She is such a stinker.

I have a feeling that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!!!!!

I have NO idea what you mean....LOL

Come to think of it......I don't either!!! :sidesplit:

Janet, Sorry I just read this thread I had my dental implant removed and redone yesterday. I missed this post... I am so happy that everything went well... I cannot believe your mother GOD BLESS HER!!! camping a few days after she had that procedure.. What a woman!!! She should be resting.. what energy she has.. We all should emaulate her .. She is one special lady... :)

I am sorry I havent posted sooner (but you know what i have been going through). I am so glad to hear that your mom did well. And please let her enjoy her life as much as she can without physically hurting herself.

I didn't know she was sick Janet. I'm sorry! I haven't been on much. Thank goodness she's okay. I just love her spunkiness - going camping!

She is a handful!
