Each transplant journey is different. Some people wait for a long period of time hoping for the day when they get the call that an organ is available.

To best assist you at the stage you are in right now, we have broken down the transplant process into three stages: pre-transplant, during transplant and post-transplant.  Please click on each stage to learn more.
