Funny you say that. He calls it "the gift that keeps on peeing".

Thanks all for your comments. It was a very special day for us.

Wonderful, great to hear, I will have my 9th anniversary of my kidney at the end of July, but I do not know who was the donor. But I am ever so grateful. Keep on living every day to the fullest.
Congrats. Quilterpat :thumbup:
