Got a call from UCLA, might have a new set of pipes for me tomorrow. Please pray for my family if you don't mind.

Prayers out you to sir.....but explain more in detail please.

Based on the initial post, he's probably already in for service. In the music industry, 'pipes' have always been slang for lungs.

Pretty safe bet.

More prayers to ya! ......and your family. I know youve got a tough road ahead of you.

My new pipes, aka lungs are installed! What a change in just 48 hrs. Long recovery ahead, but cystic fibrosis was unrelenting in its quest to extinguish my life. I am grateful for the donor and their families decision.

Wow! Ronnie, I'm so sorry I didn't read this thread right. Congratulations on your new lungs! Is breathing a lot easier? I'm glad you went through the surgery okay, and I'm adding you to my prayer list. I ask God to keep his healing hands on you and make you strong. God bless.

Procedure went well, and I am healing quite a bit quicker than we figured. Never a bad thing.

2.5 months out from surgery now and its amazing how good I feel. I seriously feel like I did when I was 20. So excited for whats ahead. I trained and was a mechanic, and now that I have the energy and stamina, I am looking to open a shop finally!
