Then and Now: Advice from Transplant Recipients

Many recipients who have undergone successful transplant surgeries are taking the best possible care of themselves by working with their healthcare teams and taking their medications to avoid rejection. They've learned to adapt to their post-transplant lifestyles and are eager to help others who are considering embarking on their own transplant journeys. Transplant recipients encourage others not to delay transplantation and to be proactive, prepared, and informed. Above all, they advise remaining calm and positive throughout the transplant journey. Listen to recipients as they share what they've learned during their journeys.
