Hello,

Good to hear that your husband is on the transplant list. It can be tempting just to stay in and wait for the phone to ring -try not to jump every time the phone does ring and try to do 'normal' things every day, going out for a walk etc. The transplant coordinators WILL get hold of you when a liver becomes available and they wont forget about him, it is easy to think they have when time goes by and you hear nothing !
