Hi, and Welcome to Connect. I am happy that you have joined this transplant discussion group after stumbling upon it! Congratulations on your upcoming liver transplant 1st anniversary! Do you have any plans to celebrate, or honor the special day?
I am a liver/kidney recipient. I found Mayo Connect when I was looking for other people who had either transplanted, or who had my disease (PSC). Like, you, there was no one in my vicinity.
I commend you and your wife for your joint plan to share with others in your area who are affected by liver disease. I don't have any 1st hand support group experience to share. When do you plan to get it activated?

I invite you and also any members of your group, to come visit Mayo Clinic Connect. I welcome you to join in and to share your experience with others from nearby and distant places. As you have already indicated - It can be lonely out there. The purpose of Connect is to share our experiences with others, and to support and encourage others along the way.

@parmcat, Do you intend this support group to be at the hospital where you transplanted?
