Thank you. My name is Tammy and I am a recent liver transplant patient at Mayo. I sing at home and in the car...lol. We didn't always have TV when I was growing up, but we always had a radio. Music has always had a special way of touching me and bringing out the very best in me. Thank you again for asking about my interest in music.

@tjgisewhite, Congratulations on your recent liver transplant! I am extra happy to meet you because I am a ltransplant recipient, too! I received a liver and kidney transplant at Mayo Rochester in 2009.
After my transplant, I picked up my violin that I had put aside for years. I consider myself a work in progress.

I invite you to the Transplant Group. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/transplants/

Tammy, When did you receive your transplant? How can I be of help as you move forward?

There is an old movie called "Radio Days" that depicts what we are discussing. Quite entertaining and revealing. Music rocks the mind and body.
