Help for organ transplant in New Zealand
From people who came through it
“Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. My nurse specialist has been more useful than the consultant, if you have one ask for their number. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here. God willing it gets easier.”
ravi.train3 · been through organ transplant“Nearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. It was on the kidney transplant list for four years and I couldn't see past it. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. You're not on your own.”
honey_frost1984 · been through organ transplant“To whoever needs this: I was in the same place a year and a half ago. Anti rejection meds for life, every single day. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces. One day at a time.”
Birgit J · been through organ transplant“Dear stranger, i was where you are in 2022. The worst part was anti rejection meds for life. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.”
