First I will say I am sorry to hear about your sister.

I think Since I have had a heart transplant, and have been through the mill on this I will tell you one thing. When it comes to heart docs, it still an up in the air thing when they are diagnosing an issue, and they cannot truly tell you what wrong. they can do the so called educated guess.

I used to be in the mind set of bigger people ( like I was) were the people that had heart problems, but that is not the case.

You all would not believe the stuff they say after you get your new heart. Things like, you can have some pizza, and a burger and fries. well I was like that but now I am far from it.

I also see many transplants get the new organ, and then the just go from a nice small size to hog wild and gain 50 plus pounds. For me that sad know that they will not take care of their selves knowing they received a gift that many will never have.
