Hi I am 58 years old and a 40-year transplant patient. Father of four grown children, Grandpa expecting two more Grandchildren this year. Was Diagnosed with Stage IV ERSD in May. I am interested in chatting with others like me. In my small neck of the woods my condition is rare. Looking forward to chatting with you.

40 years?! Wowsers!  I'm just glad my Blokey (husband) has made it to 1 year ... anything else is a massive bonus.  You've given me lots of hope!
