RVH Liver Support Group hosted another two successful coffee events in both Omagh and Enniskillen on August 9. Ashley and Arthur from the Group hosted the events which were well attended.
This was a specially poignant event in that we had a patient who was recently transplanted in Kings and another who was over for a recent assessment and just received word hours before that they were accepted to be put on the transplant list. Sentences of hope, accreditation, reassurance and thankfulness were in abundance at all times.
And this is one of the many benefits of holding such events; they are a fantastic way for patients to get together to support one another and make new friends.
We encourage everyone to look out for these coffee events happening throughout the year and to remember to bring along a loved one or friend. Its not just for patients themselves.
