Hi feruj,
I had similar situation w/family I to am extremely private person to,my Dad felt he needed to let them know what was going on so he took it upon himself to tell them”what could I say he is my Dad😊 and loves me”
It all seem to work out fine and family was very concerned and supportive. U really need that when u r going thru this journey, u do not need any additional stresses.
My LTP journey was pretty urgent as I had portal hypertension, ascities, and the worse was hepatic encephalopathy which hospitalized me for a while. I experienced the itching and sleepless nights but that’s all part of it.
It’s not as bad as u think at least not for me. Yes u will need a caregiver but u will be able to do simple task for yourself, u will look like u have been thru a major surgery but just take it a day at a time it will get better.😊💚
Some people do so well they return back to work within 6 weeks and some need more time it a individual situation how u do, it sounds like u r like me I was in excellent shape except for my LTP. so I did well, covid was really bad when I had my TP so they were extremely cautious w/me and I did not get the vaccine. Have not gotten covid🤞🏻I do not get😊.
All I can say is the worse is the first 6 months, try be patient and u r going to be on a emotional roller coaster and that is why u have your TP to help u thru this and of course we will be here to support u to.
I am 2 years LTP and I have had some bumps in the road and I am doing well., I thank my donor for each and every day they gave me my second chance at life. It’s beautiful to have life again and not be sick all the time.
Hang in there.. day at time😊

So inspiring. May I ask your age? I'm 66 and I ask myself, can I handle a TP psychology, as well as, physically.
