A Human Liver Weighs 3½ Pounds

P1250998

My brother got a liver transplant last night. A tense period of 36 hours for the family has ended with numerous sighs of relief. This is a day that has been waited for for quite some time and tho it's just the beginning of a long road to recovery I can't help but feel like things have changed for the better. My sister put it best this morning. Everything looks a little brighter today. Now if they could just do something about his head.

Praise the Lord for medical miracles such as 'Liver Transplants'! We are so happy that everything is looking a little brighter for the Estler family.
