Hi i just found this thread and my Heart Transplant was 5 Jan 2018. Problebly the biggest change is retirement. I had a very physical job that requires a lot of driving to remote locations. My employer had no problem granting me a disability retirement early at 58. I really loved my job but i soon realized that the Lord God had other plans for me. I have become very active in my Church and have started Livestreaming our services and maintaining our website. I find it very rewarding. We are reaching people around the world. Even tho i have had a few setbacks manly with viruses i have an awesome heart that is working well. My other interests inclide Golf and Hiking. Im still working on getting my strength back up to a level that i can handle some more difficult hikes but time is on my side. I do hope and pray someday to hear back from my donors family and learn more about him or her. But i do realize it can take time and maybe i may never hear. I just know i got a good one and it was well taken care of. When it comes to food changes i haven't knoticed any. I pretty much still love the same foods. I do miss a few foods I can't have now but i doing okay. Thanks for all the great folks on connect it so nice having all you to talk to about life after transplant.
