If It's Wednesday

It's KIDNEYS!


That's Kidneys In, not Kidneys Out. Someone no longer using either of theirs thoughtfully provided them for the use of two needy souls.

Good Thoughts offered for the recipients' recoveries, and Blessings on the donor and zir family.

Thank You

The first is in Recovery, the second swung to another room and is started. Holiday weekends are often bittersweet for operating rooms; one source for donors is motor vehicle accidents. And it may be a day or so after the weekend officially ends that the families accept, and decide, and then ... we work.

I don't know if you spotted this, but it's related. Look here if you're interested.

Thank you for the link to the portraiture community. Just for my curiousity, was it Photography, or Kidneys that led you to me?

Photography. :)

Let's not talk kidneys today. We had a visit to the ER today. Bleh.

Understand about the ER visit. So, cool, photography!
