Hi all, I have just found this site and am very new to everything about the transplant process. I have just sent in my paperwork and blood type to hopefully begin the process of becoming a living liver donor for my husband who has liver cancer. I would appreciate any feedback anyone has on this process, especially about recovery and time off work (the real logistics of the thing!) Thanks in advance. Also I am not very computer literate, hope I am doing all this right...

I'm new to the website. My daughter (kidney recipient) is sort of holding my hand.

No obvious nerve damage, except a bout with shoulder nerve pain as a result of the extended position during surgery. It went away after about one month.

Hey, gang - - in case you haven't already seen it, I've launched the companion blog for my living organ donor nonprofit, at http://greatestgift.wordpress.com. Stop by and tell your friends -- we can use all the help and traffic we can get to build this into a resource that gets easily found by living donors who are searching.

I hope everybody's doing well!
Becky
