MAny of you know Shamis on here (Gary Barnett).

What you may not have known is today he donated a kidney to his mother. She lives in Pennsylvania.

He was heavily sedated when I talked to him, but said he was doing well.

He also said that his mother's body initially accepted the kidney.

Great news all around.

Since I know he will be rehabbing for several weeks, just wanted to wish him get well greetings on his third favorite forum.

Let that body heal, Gary! It'll be strong and healthy in no time!

Wishing your mother a healthy recovery as well and may her body continue to accept its new life gift.
