Sally, I was wondering how I could be considered a volunteer in any liver transplant program. I’m a 74 year old male with non-alcoholic liver disease. I am willing to volunteer for any kind of transplant program. I am a retired military veteran who has spent most of my career in teaching and I firmly believe that the best way to learn is by doing. If you’re not familiar with this, could you share my status with any of your colleagues. Thanks, Romie Brown
@romiesteve, may I ask what you mean by volunteer for a liver transplant program? Have you had a liver transplant?
Colleen, no I haven't, but because of my age, the Veterans Administration said I would not be a good candidate.I don't expect to be a possible donor so I truly believe our young doctors can benefit by doing the actual transplant. When I say any type liver transplant, I mean "ANY"including animal donors and mechanical devices.My wife and I have throughly discussed this and she is in total agreement.Thanks for anything you can do to bring this to fruition.
@romiesteve, I suggest contacting Mayo Clinic Clinical Trials
