You've certainly led an interesting live! Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

Flo,
It was quite an adventure with all the bleeds, transfusions, procedures to stem bleeding, biopsies, ambulance trips and life flights. Then with the first liver, the follow up surgeries, medications and maintenance decisions.
Her second transplant went much smoother but still had a few set backs. It's been 24 1/2 years and she is the healthy mother of my 15 year old grandson and a nurse who works with mothers and newborns.
