Continuous Beginnings

For 13 years I've been required to appear each Fall or Spring at New York Presbyterian Hospital for an extremely brief appointment with my liver transplant doc. At the end of September this year, Michael and I made that annual trek. I had scheduled the visit to overlap with the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah.

Closure

My check in at The Center for Liver Disease and Transplantation
at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center is always short because my liver transplant was so successful. This year's visit with my transplant specialist, Dr. Robert S. Brown, provided a different kind of closure. It turned out to be a real turning point for me.
