Husband donates kidney, saving wife's life from end-stage kidney failure.

Unable to bear watching his wife's health deteriorate after nearly five years of severe kidney failure, the husband decided to donate a kidney to save her. Fortunately, the kidney transplant surgery was successful – a new life was reborn from the love and devotion of husband and wife, right in the early days of the new year 2025.

Ms. NBTG (born in 1979, residing in Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City) suffers from chronic kidney disease and has been undergoing dialysis three times a week since 2020. Recently, her health has been deteriorating, with many complications such as fatigue and swelling in her hands and feet.

After 6 hours, the kidney transplant surgery from the husband to his wife was successfully completed.

Seeing his wife battling illness every day, and heartbroken by the numerous surgeries her hands had to undergo to create blood vessels for regular dialysis, to the point of completely damaging the blood vessels in her left hand, Mr. T. (born in 1978, husband of Ms. G.) decided to donate a kidney to his wife, hoping to share some of her suffering from the disease.

Mr. T. is in good health and has no underlying medical conditions, so he hopes his wish can be fulfilled. "Seeing my wife suffer from this illness for so long, enduring so much pain, I felt so sorry for her and couldn't bear it. I decided to get a blood test, and the results showed a match, so I decided to donate a kidney," Mr. T. confided.

The surgical team removed Mr. T's left kidney via laparoscopic surgery and transplanted it into Ms. G's body.

After 6 hours, the kidney transplant surgery was successfully completed. Both husband and wife are recovering well after the operation. Post-transplant clinical results show that the recipient's kidney function is gradually stabilizing and returning to normal levels, with urine output currently within the normal range. This is a welcome sign, marking the successful completion of the surgery and the rebirth of a new life, a testament to their deep marital love.
