Hi all just a quick update. Jason doing great. Just over one month in. He was out of hospital after 9 days. Bloods and liver function have been told is perfect. He’s a new man. Breathing good. He’s sleeping well now. We so thank the liver donor for this second chance in life. Never thought it would happen but it did. Anyone waiting your time will come

HI Whitelock. I'm so pleased for you both. I know that post transplant it's so hard to find the right words to express just how very grateful we are feeling. I thank my lucky stars, the medical staff expertise and my donor every single day. May Jason go from strength to strength. Very best wishes to you. Alf

Well done Jason, and well done you!! It is most definitely a trying time with emotions bouncing all over the place. Still work to do, but by god it’s a great feeling, isn’t it. Thank the donor family every day!!

Take care, both of you. Andy.

Must be doing well to be out in 9 days. Think it took me about 3 weeks to be sent home. 9 days in I think I was still out of breath from walking from my bed to the end of the ward.

Onwards and upwards.

Hi there you’ve brought back the memory of walking the ward for me. I think I was doubled over like some 90 year old at nine days as I was to scared to straighten up.😬

So happy for you and Jason. Xxx Jaycee
