@danab welcome to Connect, Dana. It’s always good to hear from another experienced post-transplant person willing to respond to questions others have, either pre-transplant or early in their post-transplant journey. I am over two years post liver transplant and grateful every day to the person who chose to be a donor, and for how fortunate we are to live in a time when this is possible.

Good Morning, @danab. I join JK in extending a welcome to Connect. Wow, 13 months with your new heart!

How has your 1st year been?
I am interested in hearing your story about your heart transplant, and I would like for others to hear it too. I want to ask you to post it in the Heart Transplant. Your post will serve to reactivate this discussion and bring it to the atttention of the Heart Patients. How does that sound?

Danab, Did you live near your transplant center? Or did you do long distance?
