7 Years on Dialysis… Just Got the Call for a Cadaveric Transplant
After 7 years of dialysis, I finally got a call for a cadaveric kidney transplant. I still can’t process it properly. My brain is switching between hope and fear every few minutes. Dialysis became such a normal part of life that this feels unreal now. I’m scared of surgery, rejection, complications, everything honestly. People who already went through a cadaveric transplant, what was going through your mind before surgery? And how different did life actually feel afterward? I honestly don’t know what to do.
Update: waited in the hospital for hours but it got cancelled in the end. Thank you everyone for the support and kind words. Honestly reading the replies helped me a lot while sitting there stressed the whole night and morning. Back to dialysis again from tomorrow.
