So I'm not bothered about what could happen in the future because we already know ourselves from his first diagnosis that life is not promised. So...

Yeah, that was definitely a concern of mine. And, you know, if push comes to shove, I think at the end of the day, I was probably more apprehensive about him giving me the kidney, knowing that he already had saved my life once before.

So there's a lot that's been happening other than just the kidney transplant. And I think the last year has taught us that there's so much more to life than work or money or any of these external things that you stress and worry about.
