Title: Redsimon has kidney transplant Post by: OldKingCole on January 13, 2010, 10:48:20 PM Redsimon is recovering in Nottingham University Hospital after a successful kidney transplant operation yesterday morning. It's been a long wait for him, certainly more than four years I am sure.
I spoke to him about an hour ago and he was in good spirits. He will be in the hospital for a least a few days while the proper working of his new kidney is checked out. I am sure that all blondeites wish him a quick return to the more normal poker life that most of us enjoy.

Title: Re: Redsimon has kidney transplant Post by: tikay on January 13, 2010, 11:13:19 PM That's wonderful news, but very quick - he only wrote to me to tell me they had found a suitable donor kidney two nights ago. He's suffered for some years now, very bravely, & with great dignity. He's a very big man. I wish him a speedy return to Simon-Normality.

Nottingham Uni Hospital, in its infinite wisdom, protects its patients from all sites having the evil word 'poker' in their URLs :redcard: So you won't be seeing Simon at the on-line tables until he gets out, probably next week, when he will be able to read all your messages for himself.

hope to bump into you at the local soon Title: Re: Redsimon has kidney transplant Post by: redsimon on January 21, 2010, 05:34:15 AM Thanks for all the messages and good lucks.
I'm back home now with a new(ish) Kidney and as is often the case in my sort of situation it is what they term a "delayed Graft" in that its effectively snoozing but with regular monitoring and tweaking the 20 plus tablets per day it should be functional in the next few weeks. I'll put a post on my blog later this week with more details. I'll be having to go to the hospital daily as an out patient for test so poker is taking a back seat still :( Hoping that I will be back to live poker in the first week of March at Dusk Til Dawn. Thanks again :) Title: Re: Redsimon has kidney transplant Post by: kinboshi on January 21, 2010, 01:10:50 PM ;mexicanwave;
