Description
Hear from people who have had a transplant as they discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly – things most people don’t want to talk about. Gain insight into the overall transplant experience and post-transplant care routine. We’ll explore the possible challenges that come along with this major surgery, including rejection, relocation, second transplants, dry runs, and the fact that transplant is not a cure for CF, but a treatment option. There will be time for questions.
Session Objectives
- People with CF who have had a transplant share their personal experiences and takeaways from the transplant journey.
- Learn about the changes to daily CF life and care management after transplant.
- Understand the new challenges transplant may present and the new beginnings it can offer.
