@myoga My transplant doctor told me the same thing…”Let my staff and I do the worrying for you! That’s our job, so you can focus on recovery!” I never lost a moment’s sleep after that.
I’m happy and relieved for you and your mom that her doctor was able to diagnose and successfully treat her health issue! So often we only hear the negative stories, so it’s really refreshing to learn about a successful outcome! If you don’t mind sharing, what was your mom’s diagnosis?

That was along time ago, long before she passed away 15 years ago. If I remember correctly, it had something to do with urinary system. She had gone to a few urologists but they couldn’t find out what was wrong. The doctor said that the tract was clogged up and the problem was common to old women. He didn’t run any tests, just diagnosed from the symptoms right on the first visit. Wonder why other urologists couldn’t figure it out.
Sounds like you had an excellent care team. Would you mind sharing your doctor’s name? My husband was recently diagnosed with CLL. Right now it’s a watch and wait. With my BC and his CLL, we struck a big jackpot! Your advice came at the right time. Thank you!!
