Thanks for the update, Joe.Off topic, and a couple may remember this. My wife lost her bladder, not cancer, but long story. Anyway, she was a candidate for the first ever bladder transplant at ucla, but constant infections and septic shock scared them. Her already not having a bladder would've taken away half the surgery. Anyway, they performed their first, and the dr randomly texted her the other night. He thinks he can do it, despite her infections, and they're already working with the insurance to get it approved again. Insurance called today, and said everything was in process, and we'll likely know in a couple of weeks. It's risky, but her health is really bad from constant infections, treatment almost daily via a port, she gets an occasional break. We've been praying/talking about it. I selfishly don't want her to risk it, because I'm just scared, but I'd probably want to try if it was me. Her outlook isn't good, the only medication working for infections has been causing seizures. I told her it's her body, and I will fully support her decision if insurance approved it. Just mentioning for those of you who pray, remember her, and this situation.
Thanks, and I do remember you telling me that. We'll know for sure in a couple of weeks, but she's excited again at the thoughts of itThanks for the update, Joe.
I have often wondered her status and situation - as you might recall I work for a major medical device company in the Urology space and tend to watch out on the news of innovations and such in the field.
Not seeimg anything these past few months from you has had me concerned. I'm glad the doctors feel confident about the situation. I did read of the first transplant and can say that the surgeons and team there at UCLA are Top 5 in the world...she could not be in better hands!!!
Continued prayers for her, you, the family, and the medical team...keep us updated!!!

Night before Florida? I think he's now obligated to start them before every game. @joevol33You are obligated to start all night before Florida threads in the future. Next one in 3 years, I think.
