@onecentwalsh What changes do you appreciate the most since your life changing journey? I was fascinated by the posts on Changes After the Transplant.

@IWantToBelieve those are some really good tips that may benefit anyone. Speaking from experience there is always hope for something better even in the face of death. It is literally a mind over matter phenomena like faith. I have been challenged with finding the good in the worst of circumstances & learned perception of what was, is & can be is a powerful motivater that both drives & is driven by emotion. Science has now statistically proven that emotion is every bit as influential on our health as exercise which in theory may explain why 2 people going through seemingly the same thing have totally different outcomes. Selfless givers tend to be happier than selfish takers. That is not to say recievers of gifts are takers because there is clear delination between selfish takers & greatful recievers...greatful recievers either have been, are or will be happy givers.

@onecentwalsh People like you inspire people like me. Thank you for sharing.

@beckyjohnson This is a completely open offer. I had all of the information I needed to prepare from Mayo but it was reassuring to talk to someone that had gone through it.
I am a donor and, as far as I can tell, completely healed. I have some testing & appointments in a couple of weeks and will find out if that's true.

@mauraacro Thank you very much. If your not heaven sent your as close to it as it gets.
