How can I be prepared for a lung transplant?
Sandra asked:
I’m 16. I have Cystic Fibrosis have gotten ill often and suffered a lot of infections and my lung function is low, the doctors think I should have a double lung transplant. My mother is urging me to say yes to it (I’m her only child and we’re very close) but she’s very scared about it too and so am I. What is life like after a double lung transplant, does anyone have any personal experience? How can i go through the surgery without being too scared and how can I emotionally prepare for this?

The doctors proposal is the one that will allow you to keep living. Having the operation will probably be the most non-fun you will ever have but after it is over, you will still have your life.

I am sorry that you are going thru such a tough time. I don’t really have the answers you seek except that your physical health would be so much better after a lung transplant.
Whatever you decide, I wish you the best. =)

I have absolutely no experience with this, nor do I really have any advice. I just had to post a comment because your story is truly inspiring. You sound like such a strong person. I wish you the very best of luck and you’ll be in my prayers.

One of the things you will need is good physical therapy in order to regain your strength. Ask your dr. if you can talk with a therapist, in order to know what will be expected. Your immune system will also be affected, and you will have to take anti-rejection drugs. Ask your dr. about the side effects. If it is your only option for prolonging life, then go for it! Good luck.
