I understand that removing a kidney operation is much heavier than the introduction of the new kidney. The new kidney is also not planned at the same location as the old kidneys, but in a place where it is much easier to reach, somewhere in the abdominal cavity and not in the rugstreek.
So you see that man is able to adapt themselves anatomically. Given the size and weight of my kidneys (approximately 8 kg.) Means removing a considerable weight reduction and a reduction in my stomach size. You see the kidneys are very clear. Every disadvantage has its advantage (J. Cruyff). The entire transplant process, both my sister and for me, from the LUMC is coordinated by the transplantatiecoordinatrice (double letter and word values yields at least 100 points on word.)
The way we are coached and treated is impressive. What strikes me is taking the personal and careful attention is given to us, but also the business and professional way traded. Confidence and calm because this is essential for both my sister and myself. Another very pleasant experience is the attitude of my employer – AOS in Rotterdam, my colleagues and clients. I know there are many legal obligations on both sides, but what is shown understanding, sympathy and interest give me tremendous support and rest. It was very difficult for me to start me to reconcile with the fact that I had to take away from my work. I also suffer from a guilt and shame to others, because of my dysfunction. I am now quite used to it, but I can not wait when I return to full functioning.
