@michelle0517, I'm so sorry to hear about your sister-in-law. This must be very hard news for your family to hear.

Most transplant centers, including Mayo Clinic, require patients to be alcohol free prior to being placed on the transplant waiting list and prior to living donor surgery. Most patients are also required to attend alcohol treatment and AA. Once patients are able to complete these recommendations, they may be eligible for either deceased or living donor transplant.

How are you holding up?
