He did however , as you say, enjoy some years of quality life, as a result of the transplant

Steve,

I'm very sorry to hear that. It's been a couple of years almost since I saw him. Falls are the scariest part. It leads to so many others things like rib injury, which in turn make it impossible to cough, which allows the lungs to build up, pneumonia and so on.

and when you tell a pwp like Jim, hope you get better soon or speedy recovery, it is a nice thing to do , but sounds a little hollow. Get better for what? Thanks for letting us know.
