I was hoping that someone can give me a little advice. My husband got a kidney transplant 3 months ago and he is doing great physically. The problem is he is having a tough time dealing with the reality that he has someone elses kidney in his body. He says that he is not the same person, but to me he always will be. I am 23 and he is 30, we were not even married a year before his kidneys shut down and he went on dialysis. Our marriage has endured so much but I feel that if I can not find a way to help him, that our marriage will be stretched to the breaking point. Please help.
