I saw my doctor on TV

My husband told me about a news story where this 21 year old kid needed a kidney transplant, and his best friend wound up being the donor. I'm not sure what made this particular story newsworthy, but they mentioned that they had been out of touch for 8 years and made contact through facebook. Anyway, I was watching the story, and low and behold, it was the same hospital when I'm having my surgery. It was also my doctor that performed the transplant, so they interviewed him at a press conference on channel 7 news I think. My husband said it gave him hope for me, after seeing both of the guys looking spry and healthy. Just over two weeks until I get my new kidney. Compliments of my wonderful father.
