Hi Swati,

Please forward this msg. to your friend.

My father Jyotindra Mehta, suffered acute renal failure, and successfully
underwent kidney transplant surgery at Breach Candy hospital, in Bombay, in
1979 - next week, he celebrates his 19th transplant anniversary. He is
currently 63, and healthy.

He has also published informative booklets, "Life with kidney failure",
"Life after kidney transplant". I don't have copies, but I'll be happy to
arrange to have them mailed to you, if you send me your mailing address.

My dad can be reached in Bombay, at 2677532 or 2677534, at his office.  I
can be reached in Seattle, at 425-558-1101.

Tushar.
