A liver transplant can have many benefits, including:

🌞 Improved quality of life: Liver transplants can lead to a longer and better quality of life.

🏃‍♀️ Increased energy: Most people who have a liver transplant say they have more energy and feel more able to cope with everyday activities.

♥️ Reduced risk of death: Liver transplants can reduce the chance of dying from liver disease.

👩‍🌾 Return to normal activities: Most patients can return to their favorite activities within 3 to 6 months after a transplant.

❤️‍🩹 Fewer medical problems: Recipients who have a living donor liver transplant seem to have fewer medical problems after the procedure.

🕰️ Shorter wait time: A living-donor donation can come from family, friends and even strangers. This often means a shorter wait time than waiting for a deceased donor’s gift.💛

💚💚 Saves two lives: A living donor liver transplant organ saves two lives because another patient can receive a deceased donor's liver.

📆 Lifespan extension: Liver transplants can extend lifespan by 15 years.

🎁 💝 A liver transplant is a lifesaving gift that can be the best treatment for liver failure in patients who are fit enough for the operation.

AIH is caused by an overactive immune system that attacks normal liver cells because it mistakes them for foreign agents such as viruses or bacteria. It’s a rare autoimmune liver disease that affects all ages and ethnicities.

Here is the information for Living Donors from Nebraska medicine! Giving the gift of an organ is one of the greatest gifts anyone can give ❤️🙏. Make sure to Add Leanna Hazen to the form, it should be the last question. ❤️🙏

If you are considering becoming a living organ donor, you probably have questions. Although most living donors are relatives or friends of the recipient, this is not a requirement. Individuals can be evaluated as altruistic or anonymous living donors to match with anyone in need, based on body size....
