Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 To H! 8/25/04 From the archives of 2004: 's Transplant 2! Hi, I haven't been around for a few weeks because on August 25th I received my second transplant. PSC came back after the first transplant which required the second transplant, hopefully it won't happen again. I'm doing great. The doctors told me that a second transplant is harder because of all the scare tissue from the first transplant. The surgery lasted 8 hours. I spent a day and a half in SICU and was then transferred to the normal floor. Everything went really well, I was out of the hospital on the 8th day. The doctors said I set the record at the U of M for the quickest discharge after a second transplant. The were really pleased with my progress. They said that it went so well because I kept a positive attitude and wanted to get out of the hospital. They said that a lot of people lay around waiting to get better and never do anything to help themselves. I hope that everyone here gets the chance to be reborn with a new liver.
