@2011panc Hi! Wow!I found this great, I am Marlo’s caregiver (mom) but I loved all ur suggestions, Marlo diet is very good as I am eating healthier, trying to exercise a little more and trying to keep things sanitized, I am older and can’t do everything, but many of ur suggestions help, I wonder Marlo has the greatest positive spirit, praying it always remain after transplant, all transplant patients have such courage such a example for all of us. Pray that God always gives us caretakers strength, kindness and empathy. Blessings to you.

Hi, @mariancauwel. I have been thinking about you and your daughter. I know that the waiting is long and seem unending, but it sounds like you have quickly been able to adjust to your caregiver/mom role. You made me laugh when I read that you are now eating healthier, along with Marlo, because I could say the exact same thing about my husband!
I believe that Marlo's positive spirit and prayers will remain and even be strentghened after the transplant.
From experience, I know that being a mom and caregiver is challenging and rewarding role. How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?
