@shepn7, I have been reading the wide range of responses that your question provoked from fellow transplant recipients. I'm curious to know if this has helped reframed your feelings of guilt and helped to embrace life?

@colleenyoung I'm still struggling with grief over this subject. I purchased a necklace that says "to honor your gift of life" and wore it the entire month of June in honor of my donor and my transplant anniversary. Some days are better than others. I had to stop wearing it recently because it was making me too sad to think about. I can't seem to let this grief about my deceased donor go. I'd love to be able to say everyone suggestions changed my life and how I feel about things, but I'm not there yet. I hope someday I will be.
