Hi all,
This discussion came to the attention of my colleagues @kequick and @lisalucier who write the blog posts for the Transplant page on Connect (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/page/transplant/). They'd like to use your tips and life hacks for living well after transplant to create a blog post. I think this is a fabulous idea. Who knows better than you guys, right? For recipients, by recipients. What do you think?

If you're new to this discussion, please take a minute to read through the past suggestions. Add your own. @lupedelarosa12 @skittles25 @chattykathy @cehunt57 @timfair @linda59 @eileenheart @wkary @swordfish @linmarie @maryallard @vacamrc @metallicpea

The post will be written later this summer or early fall. That's gives us time to gather more of your tips. So I'll repeat @rosemarya's original question:

"Share your practical living tips and ideas about how you ‘live’ after your transplant. For example: hand washing and germ prevention, eating out; attending public events; daily medicine reminder. What healthy practices work for you?"

Hi Colleen,
I'm not a recipient but maybe a site for loved ones to share same might be good?
ThxLinda 

Linda,
Family members who support those receiving and donating an organ are also welcome to this group. We also have a group on Connect dedicated to caregivers https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/caregivers/ We'd love for you to join us there.

How is your son doing?
