Your role is not to force decisions. It is to help hold information, ask questions when energy is low, and support the patient's choices.
You have rights as a caregiver to call any liver transplant center and ask questions. You have rights to ask any physician or medical staff treating your loved one any question, at any reasonable moment. You are not imposing on anyone. You are being your loved one's advocate when they are unable to be their own.
Exploring options is not a failure of care
It can be an act of protection. Many caregivers have stated on public forums that calling a second liver transplant center was the best decision they ever made.
Caregivers frequently tell us: "We didn't know we could ask." "We thought we had to stay." "We didn't want to make things worse." This page exists so neither you nor the patient has to carry that burden alone.
