This will be short and sweet. Both surgeries went well, Matt's surgeon said he has a "cute" kidney, I asked what that meant, if it meant his kidney was smiling because he is such a smiley person. She said, "if a kidney could come out smiling his did." My mom was taken back to surgery when they had just removed Matt's kidney. They stopped at the window where Matt was and held up the kidney so she could see it. The surgery for Matt went well and just as the surgeon would have wanted it. Matt already got up and walked today, he went to visit my mom. That wore him out, then he crashed after that.
My mom's surgery went well and my dad asked the doctor to rate the surgery on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, he said it was a "10." He said when they connected her new kidney to her ureter it began working immediately and flowing, which they were very happy with. She is putting out tones of fluid, the kidney is working!!! They both have a long road ahead of them, both very tired and in pain, but the surgery went very well and we are off to a good start!!!
On a different note, but something special to us. Today is our son Asa's birthday, he would be 4 years old today. The surgery was changed from October 6th to the 5th, Asa's birthday. His name means physician or healer, there are reason's for everything. The Lord loves us and gives us guidance, direction, and comfort in ways we will see it. He has in the past, did today, and will continue as we listen and let him. We are all very happy with the outcome today. Please continue to pray for them both. They are both amazing people, two of the most important people in my life, both amazing examples of Christ.

I am glad that everything went well. Oh that made me cry when you said that Asa name means physican or healer, he was definitely there watching over.
