Tanner Krist and his family returned from Pittsburg's Childrens Hospital the first week of January. All reports are that both Tanner, and his donor mother are doing well! Tanner, as you may recall, recieved his second kidney transplant just before Christmas. Tanner, who is 7 years old, and has been featured on the pages of the Sardinia Standard a few times, was born with kidney disease. His first kidney, donated by his father Matt, failed after 14 months. The news is so good that it is possible that Tanner will be returning to school in February! Congratulations Tanner, a lot of people are thinking about you and pulling for you.
