I have a new liver!

On Feb 8th 2013 I received a gift of life, I am now the recipient of a liver transplant. I probably still have the hep c virus, my cancer may have escaped my liver during or before transplant, this site has given me courage and support, and I am grateful.

Yippee for you and make sure to share your story with all you meet. As we are all aware of, there is a critical shortage of donor livers out there and your story has the potential to increase the donor rate like no one else can
Enjoy your gift and live long and prosper!!!!
