Vujošević after kidney transplant: The surgery isn't difficult, it's difficult when you wake up

Trophy coach Duško Vujošević, the first coach of the Montenegrin national basketball team, reported from Minsk after a kidney transplant.

The operation went well, writes Sport Klub.

"I came here, this is a serious country, everything is clean, tidy, and the hospital is the same. The doctors are excellent, I was operated on by Oljeg Kalaček, who is an extraordinary doctor. I can see from what he did and from what I knew in preparation for that operation. The operation itself is not difficult, you are under anesthesia. It is difficult afterwards, when you wake up. That recovery... There is no shorter path than the one that is. But through that struggle you have the opportunity to return to a normal life," said Vujošević.

The legendary basketball expert has been in a kidney transplant program at a clinic in Minsk for two years, which involves regular therapies until a donor becomes available.

There are words of praise for Belarus for organizing these interventions.

"And that's why Serbia should also take much more care of transplants, the church should participate in it as it did in Croatia and Spain, to recommend that new lives be preserved. Of course, the state should lead all of this. But until that is established, cooperation with countries that have well-organized organ transplantation is always needed, and Belarus is certainly one of them, and it is not a member of Eurotransplant, which prevents those who are not members from working with them. Cheers and salvation for society," said the popular Dule.
