Hi Toney. I had a liver transplant at Mayo Phx a year and a half ago. We live out of state (CO). When we got the call at midnight (literally) and were told they had a liver for me if I could make it to AZ in about 24 hrs. Caught the first red eye out of DIA Monday morning. Was told to come straight to Mayo, not any hotel. When we got there they rushed me to the operating table and folks at the Mayo front desk told my wife/caregiver they could not check our bags but they would watch them. I was in the 9 hour surgery 30 hrs from the call. They told my wife to go to the hotel and rest as she could not help during the surgery. She did not want to but got an Uber to the hotel, checked in with the bags and returned the next morning as I was still in surgery. Not sure if all this was typical but talking to others could be close. Have your go bag and caregiver ready to roll. Hope this helps. Prayers up.
