She received great love and received a liver transplant to extend her life. She signed up to donate organs in the hope of helping others.

The Chung Ho Memorial Hospital affiliated with Kaohsiung Medical University held a sharing session for transplant patients today (7th) to advocate the concept of organ donation to continue life and love. The recipients also shared their feelings about waiting and transplantation, and even signed an organ donation card after being reborn, hoping to bring hope to others at the end of their lives.

Ms. Hu, 56, had more than 40 stitches on her body due to an accident when she was 6 years old. However, she was also infected with hepatitis B because the instruments were not thoroughly sterilized at that time. When she was in her 40s, she went to the doctor because of difficulty breathing and low blood pressure. Only then was she discovered that she had cirrhosis of the liver and an enlarged spleen. She had vomited blood due to ruptured esophageal vein aneurysms many times. Afraid that she would never live again, she finally waited for 5 years and 3 months for Da Ai to donate her liver. It has been 3 years since the liver transplant. She said that the wait was worth it and she would maintain a normal life schedule to cherish this liver. Because it was someone else who allowed her life to continue, she also signed up for organ donation so that her love can continue.

45-year-old Ms. Chen has severe chronic kidney disease and received a kidney transplant from DaAi in 2022. She shared that when she was young, she took diet pills of unknown origin in order to lose weight. In 2014, a physical examination revealed that her kidneys were atrophied. She was diagnosed with stage 4 glomerulosclerosis during a medical examination. The doctor recommended kidney dialysis, but she still I delayed receiving peritoneal dialysis until my condition worsened to the 5th stage. It was not until more than 4 years ago that I received an organ donation transplant, which finally freed me from the pain of kidney dialysis three times a week. I returned to my favorite running activities 5 months after the operation. I am now very careful about my diet and want to protect this hard-won kidney.

Chen Fangming, vice president of the National Medical University, said that organ donation is a precious sentiment. Organ transplantation helps everyone extend their lives when needed and is an act of respecting life.

Zhang Wencan, director of Gaoyi Medical Transplant Center, emphasized that organ transplantation is the cooperation of a large hospital team. In the treatment of end-stage organ failure, organ transplantation is still the only hope for many patients to regain a new life. Behind every successful transplant operation is the work of dozens of medical team members who work day and night and race against time, but the more critical source is the compassion and courage of the donor family.

Gao Yi invites transplant patients and patients waiting for transplant, living donors, etc. to jointly advocate organ donation and sign selfless love.
