I have been watching the tweets from Children's Medical Center in Dallas all morning. The doctors at U.T. Southwestern removed a kidney from the abdomen of Chris Gilbreath, father of three-year-old John who will receive the kidney. As I write this, here are the most recent couple of tweets from @ChildrensTheOne:

John is excited to get the chance to go swimming this summer, which is something he couldn't do before the kidney transplant. 2 minutes ago from web.

Dr. Desai and Dr. Mitchell are getting ready to sew in the kidney. 6 minutes ago from web

What could be cooler than a father saving the life of his young son? And the whole world being able to see a blow-by-blow account of the whole thing direct from both ORs? It's almost over now, but go back and read the whole series of tweets here.
