@rosemarya Hi Rosemary, so good to see you are helping others. I just wanted to let u know Marlo is now on her 8th week after pancreas and kidney transplant from Mayo in Glendale Az. So happy to report she is doing well, had issues with, infections, blood clots in lungs and pancrease, eating more protein, but she is eating much better, she hasn’t been to dialysis since before transplant or had insulin, it’s hard and yet beautiful..yesterday she wrote her thank you letter to the donor yesterday, she let me read it and I cried..so grateful for those and their families who help share life .. she will always take the best care of her self. Soon our time at Mayo will come to an end because of her insurance, but they were a miracle team, staff and hospital, if anyone is considering transplant they are the caring, professional and kind ones..she and all of us love them all. Just wanted to touch bases that we are doing well, and I hope to be back again with the support group if I am allowed. You were absolutely the kindest especially in moments of panic right after the transplant..you’re so calm and helpful..so many blessings to you and all the caregivers and their loved ones. Marian

@cehunt57 Thank you for your hug, just so want you to know you being a beautiful part of this support group helps so much, especially to all of us that are new, can’t tell you right after transplant of Marlo, as her caregiver I was so worried, need reassurance so badly, the Mayo doctors, transplant team, nurses are so knowledgeable kind and wonderful, but to have someone whose experienced it all, and you are just so relatable. Thank you from all of us who need you and thank you for your calm. Marian
