Thank you, that post was a few years ago now I just had my 7 th anniversary of the New Heart. Yes this is a great community to share and I hope your situation is going well. May I ask what brings you to Connect? Are you also a transplant related patient?

Oh interesting as it popped up in my feed from the more recent comment and I didn’t notice the original date LOL. But nice to have read your story and congratulations on 7 years from transplant!

I was diagnosed and treated for CNS lymphoma at Mayo in 2024. I initially joined Connect because my Mayo doctor asked that I watch an educational video on bone marrow transplant which was going to be part of my treatment - I ended up not needing this and am in remission and feeling great.

In joining Connect, I never expected such a great community of caring and supportive members. Being a part of this community has been such a positive experience and a regular part of my life now.

Thanks for reaching out and my best wishes to you.
