This jerrydrennan I have been at the gift of life house since I was transplant on sept19. I have not noticed any papers mentioned the connect. I have made some friends and they do not now about connect until me. The desk attendant does not know about connect but asked how ti get some literature. So I am reaching out help.

@jerrydrennan Congratulations on your transplant! I am happy for you and your wife.

Thank you for doing what you are doing to support Connect at Gift of Life House. Thank you for notifying us about the need for literature replacements.

@jerrydrennan are there any by the mailboxes? There were when we were there in July, but they may be gone by now.
Blessings,
JoDee

Hi @jerrydrennan, thanks for the alert. This is a bad news good news story. Bad news is that there were no Connect brochures when you were at the Gift of Life House. Good news because in July my colleague hand delivered a massive stack of literature. Looks like they've run out. Bad news that the desk attendant didn't know about Connect. Good news because now she does. Hearing about Connect from a patient carries more weight than hearing about it from me. Extra special good news, other patients and family know about Connect because of you. THANK YOU. Community grows one person at a time. Nothing better than word of mouth.

I will notify my colleague and we'll get a new supply of literature over there asap.

@jerrydrennan congratulations on your transplant. It’s such an incredible feeling to be on the other side of these health problems finally. I hope you are feeling well and that your incision is not uncomfortable. I was very fortunate in having such a rapid recovery, I hope you are too. What was your MELD at transplant?
