1 Reaction@audreylaine, Will this video be available to members after the live video presentation?
@beckymorosky, Welcome, and check back here for the reply to your inquiry, Usually these presentations are recorded and made available for people like you who cannot attend 'in person'.
If you are interested in ongoing conversations where members are sharing their transplant experiences and offering support to each other, I invite you to take a look at the Transplant Discussion Group. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/transplants/

@johnbrowne, I am a liver/kidney recipient. Also a volunteer mentor on Connect.
I want to personally invite you to take a look at our Transplant Discussion Group. You might see a conversation that looks interesting to you. We have a wide variety of ongoing conversations happening where members are sharing their experiences with all areas of organ transplant. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/transplants/

3 ReactionsLooking forward to this. Dr Croome performed my liver transplant 6 weeks ago yesterday. At 39 years old, he and the team at Mayo Jacksonville have given me a new lease on life. Words cannot express how thankful I am.

2 ReactionsReady at the computer. How do I "sign on"? Maybe it is not 12 noon EDT? Did I miss it? I am on the Video Q&A page.
How do I view the video?
No video
When you are receiving a deceased organ how much time do you have to get to the hospital for surgery? I live several states away from Mayo in Rochester and am wondering if I'm going to have to temporarily move there once I'm on the wait list.
