Dear Ginger,
My husband was a heart transplant and lived for almost 17 years. He very much felt like your husband is doing. Thankful for the extra years with us his family and able to enjoy his hobbies. He always told me that person did not need his heart anymore and he was so thankful to receive it. It was an incredible gift, a sad day for the donor family but a joyful day for us.

@376ak2567, I'm so glad that @gingerw's post inspired you to make your first post in the Transplants group. I can imagine that you are grateful for the 17 years that your husband's donor gifted to your family. How are you doing today?
