Here are the pics that I promised. The first is from about 2 weeks after surgery and the second is from last night.
You can tell how much swelling there was when you compare it to the second picture. I had forgotten I was that swollen.
The little bump on the left side (my right) of the pic is my liver still trying to get back into position! You can compare the right side bulge and see that it has gone down a lot since March. I am surprised the scar is fading like it is. I am pretty proud of it now....and to think that I was so scared! What a pansy!!

Josh,
I found your link from Becky at http://chopped-liver-blog.blogspot.com/
I went through the process to donate to my father in law. I was denied medically.
So, since I can't donate I came up with a way to bring about an awareness for organ donation. Check the blog out below and the photo site on Flickr.
I'll check back to see how you are doing, which it sounds like is pretty good.
