20 years ago DH was very poorly with an incurable disease called PSC (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis) and probably had at best 6 months to live.
Thanks to the skill and dedication of the Royal Free Hospital's Liver Transplant team 20 years ago TODAY and in the weeks which followed, he is still with us. It has been a rocky road at times but when the chips are down (to mix my metaphors) our NHS is second to none.
Thank you NHS and thank you the family of the anonymous donor whose gift saved at least one life. In our case allowing DH to see his lovely DDs graduate, to marry and also in the fullness of time to know our 4 wonderful DGCs.
If you don't already carry a Donor Card, please please reconsider.
