We live in Sebring, Florida which is 4 1/2 to 5 hours from Mayo Jacksonville. We did not need to relocate prior to transplant, but we did need to from the surgery and post transplant. Mayo Jacksonville has many options for temporary housing that your Social Worker will communicate during the process. Mayo wants you to be around 30 minutes or so post transplant.
Hope this helps,

Yes that helps a lot! Might seem kind of silly but I have a cat who is kind of an indoor/outdoor cat! He sometimes can't make up his mind what he wants. I would have a hard time leaving him alone for so long. I know post transplant I'd have to be down there but if I didn't have to be there to wait for the call it could be weeks. I really appreciate your help. Thanks! 😊
