@rosemarya My husband had his transplant 1 Oct 2016, at Scripps Green Hospital in La Jolla (CA). At the time I was living about 100 miles north of him. But as a member of his care team, his daughter being the other one, I drove 4 hrs on Thursdays, and returning to my place on Mondays another 4 hrs during that first month. That continued the next two months, but I only had that 100 miles each way then [seemed like a piece of cake!] When he came home to his place. We have both told people because there was that consolidated time together, our relationship had a pretty solid foundation. We were married April this year.
