More organ donations are coming from living donors, though the majority still come from deceased people.

When temperatures rise, it’s important for transplant patients to take extra precautions to protect their health. Here’s how to stay cool this summer.

May is Older Americans Month! It's a time to celebrate the power of older Americans to guide and inspire us. Did you know that almost 50% of deceased organ donors are over 55? Don't rule yourself out to give the gift of life. Generosity is ageless! 💙💚 We can all help save and heal lives by registering online as an organ, eye, and tissue donor at RegisterMe.org.

One in five Americans will develop skin cancer—and solid organ transplant recipients are at even greater risk. While you're enjoying time in the sun this summer, follow these tips to protect your skin!

It’s common to experience a wide range of emotions post-transplant. With the right support and lifestyle changes, you can find healthy ways to process your feelings and care for your mental health.

Remember: you are not alone. If you need extra support navigating the highs and lows of life after transplant, reach out to your transplant care team.

Sweet and juicy, watermelon is a symbol of summer. At a glance, you might assume it’s mostly sugar and water. But once you dig in and discover its vast array of nutrients, you’ll be surprised by how many potential health benefits it has.

Watermelon tastes great, and it’s good for you! A registered dietitian shares the health benefits of this vibrant fruit.

April is Stress Awareness Month 💙

Stress doesn’t always look the same to every person. For those individuals living with a solid organ transplant, it often lives beneath the surface. It can be the quiet worry before appointments, the daily scheduling of medications, or the emotional weight of protecting your health every single day.

For parents living with a solid organ transplant, the stress can feel heavy too. Balancing your health while caring for your children, showing up for their needs, and trying to stay strong through it all is a lot. And it’s okay to acknowledge that.

This month is a reminder:
💙 You’re allowed to slow down
💙 You’re allowed to feel overwhelmed
💙 You’re allowed to ask for help
💙 You’re allowed to prioritize your health
💬 If this resonates with you, you’re not alone. You are doing more than enough, even on the hard days.
