Yes I in February 2021 received a liver, kidney transplant from the same deceased donor. My liver is still working great, but for 2 weeks after transplant the kidney didn't work. So I was back on dialysis, imagine what went through my head at this time. It slowly began to work well enough to get off dialysis, but not to sustain a good life. They then started the whole process of getting me back on the list first, then reclaim the place I was on the list. After achieving that UNOS, deemed me a priority patient because my kidney never really worked. So on November 12, 2021 I was blessed with a second kidney transplant. I consider myself a living miracle. So blessed. I hope any of you reading this are as fortunate if you find yourself in need as I found found myself.
God bless our modern medicine and people who agree to become donors both living or deceas🙏
