No surgery - they had my sister prepped and ready to go. When the kidney and liver arrived at the hospital, the liver was simply too damaged. Since both organs have to come from the same donor, her surgery was scrubbed dammit. The kidney did go on to someone else thank god. Waiting, waiting, waiting again.... alas.

Thanks to everyone for the vibes. I hope she gets one soon - she's pretty sick and struggling.

Peace.
