Stella, I just noticed that you are following the Connect PSC Pages. Does your son have PSC? That is why I needed a transplant. I was diagnosed with PSC and have received a successful transplant and I am doing well. I will honor 10 year anniversary in April.
If you want to talk PSC, I am here, anytime.

Thank you so much Rosemary. Yes, my son has PSC. He was diagnosed a year ago. Took close to two years to get a proper diagnosis. Based on what we now know about the disease we are guessing he probably has had it at least 6 years possibly longer. He's 34 now and is stage 4 cirrhosis. The past month or so has warranted a couple of trips to the ER. A week or so ago his doctor suggested he is getting close to meeting with the transplant evaluation team. It is wonderful to hear success transplant stories such as yours! 10 years!! Wow, simply amazing:-) I will definitely keep the conversation going with you. Thank you again. Your generous offer is greatly appreciated by myself & my family.
