Post Familly members going under the knife...

One of my brothers has had diabeties for quite some years. its so bad that he's lost his sight and his kidneys are failing. He has known for a while now that he will need a kidney transplant.

Next week, wednesday the 10th he goes in for the surgury. he is a father and a husband.

On top of that, the person donating the kidney is my sister. She is also married and has a daughter.

Needless to say im pretty worried right now. Im taking the day off to be down there during the operations.

I pray that all goes well for both of them...

So... if you have an older brother and I'm guessing your sister is older too, then that makes you the baby huh?

I am the youngest of 4 brothers and 1 sister.

I am an only child.

Figure that out.
