I'd catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror and just stand there - looking into my eyes as if trying to find my donor, like they would look back at me from the inside out. Finally one comes to grips that there is another person's organ learning to reside in you & that that organ's donor family needs to know how appreciated it is, how well you intend to care for it...BUt do appreciate the interest shown in my experience and hopfully the whole image of transplant.




Foremost, I must thank you for sharing, QBall. I am also extremely grateful that by Divine Providence and the thoughtfulness of the Donor, we have been given the wonderful opportunity to know you. I pray that you continue to be well. Many only just browse these forums but, I am extremely confident that many come away feeling stronger from what is shared here, such as your experience. You inspire.
