Hi everyone,

Our transplant blog was updated again today with a can't-miss story! In this post we introduce you to Andy Sandness, Mayo Clinic's first face transplant patient. Andy's story represents a major milestone for our transplant center. We are THRILLED for Andy and wish him well as he returns home to Wyoming. Hope you are as inspired as we are by this miraculous story.

Hi everyone,
Today we updated our blog with some information that deserves some attention. We know patients who get transplants are tasked with trying to figure out how to pay for their post-transplant medications. These medications can cost thousands of dollars a month, and we want to provide patients with tips on how they might lessen the burden of these drug costs. Check out our new blog today: How to Save Money on Your Medications - http://mayocl.in/2mma0qE. We hope you find some tips to help you.
Have a wonderful weekend,

I have been told, "You are never too old to learn." In this case I'll say "You are never too many years post transplant to learn more!"

Good morning all!
Today we have a new blog post about Transplant and Donation Facts and Myths. I know some of you have expressed your frustration about the misinformation and lack of participation related to organ donation from your friends on social media. This might be a post that you could share on your social media pages to clear up some of those myths that are floating around.
Have a beautiful day!
