Are you a rare blood group? Are there other complications? Have you ever had the call? Tell us your experiences.

I'm B Positive....only 9% of country have this blood type.

Was on Activated Donor List for 11 weeks.

Was never on dialysis but was just about to have tube inserted for peritoneal dialysis. I delayed op because I was about to become a grandma for the first time and did not want to miss this special occasion. Got my "call" 8 weeks after my grandson was born. Had transplant 6 years & 7 months ago. Now have 5 grandchildren
