Penn patient Stacey Knox traveled to HUP earlier this month, her husband said, adding that the transplant was successful, and she's recovering and being monitored. "It's certainly a bittersweet story, but I think this is one of those opportunities where a parent gets to make a lasting and final gift to their child," Knox's surgeon Peter Abt, MD, Surgical Director of Kidney Transplantation, said. "Any parent would want to be able to provide for their children in such a way."

Knox has battled diabetes since she was a little girl. Last year, after her kidneys failed, she went onto the transplant list. Her father wanted to help, but because of his own health, he wasn't able to be a living donor. On Monday morning, Knox received a new kidney from her father, who also donated his other kidney and liver to patients on the wait list.
