Johnnie, just returning from the recovery room. All is well. The new liver is already making bile. His Kidneys are also working well. He is still grogy from the medicine used to put him to sleep for surgery.

Johnnie's first stroll down the hall with his new liver. Still hooked up to IV and catheter along with his biliary tube, that is used to monitor the production of the bile from the liver.

Johnnie, waving his hands thanking God and thanking the Donor family who so unselfishly made a decision that will affect him for the rest of his life.

Johnnie, showing his incision site, for those of you who have not been through this and are curious.
God is truly in the miracle working business! We want to thank the Donor Family for this most precious gift of life.  Words just can not express our sincere gratitude for the unselfish decision that they made.  We would also like to thank, the hundreds of people that have visited our website and the many, many prayers that have been sent up on our behalf.
