@vjase, Welcome to Connect. I am honored to meet you, a pioneer in the world of transplantation. I bet you have seen and experienced many changes and advancements throughout your transplant life.
I would like to say thank you, for your part in being a patient and for blazing the trail for all of us who are able to follow in your footsteps.
vjase, What advice would you offer to a patient who is just beginning their own transplant journey?

First of all I would like to thank you for your kind words. Like many of my fellow transplant recipients I would like to say its normal to have many fears post transplant (tests, blood work, and trepidation from a random ache or pain). I would also say to try to enjoy the great gift that you received. Always appreciate all that your caregivers have done for you and try to understand what they they went through to help you along your journey.
