About Me: Please use this space to tell the community about yourself and your unique experience with transplantation:

I required a liver tx after having Hep C for 20 years. My first tx was a "domino" tx where the living donor required a new liver and I got hers. A blood clot developed with that liver and within a week I received a second tx from a deceased donor. I am forever grateful to all involved.
