Anyone travel with an LVAD heart pump?

Mile High, I certainly hope the best in your 'important lady's' situation.

A good friend of mine needed a new liver and was sick for a long time. He had an unusual inherited situation and it's a terrible thing to go through.

At first, they said he was not a candidate as certain parameters have to be met. One hospital said no and another in a different city said absolutely yes (always get a second opinion!). Unfortunately, the circumstances of one person give life to another.

It has certainly made me an organ donor advocate.

Best of luck to you.

Thank you so much for the kind words Mr. Mark - you always take the high ground and I appreciate that.

She also has an inherited issue that is leading to this, so her siblings are watching carefully. She is a pillar of health otherwise, never abused herself like I have. This pump should make her feel better than she has in several years, and it does put her higher on the transplant list.
