I have had a heart transplant nearly four weeks ago and I am recovering very well.

The first week after my Heart Transplant was very funny because I couldn't remember anything not even my operation! But now I'm starting to remember things slowly.

I can run now, which is a very good sign. When I first got my new heart I had to take so many medicines, but as i get better they are being reduced. I don't feel different now I have a new heart. I must have been the only person in history to not be scared before my big operation. I was smiling right up to the point when I went into the theatre.

I wouldn’t mind giving anyone advise who has to have a heart transplant, just don't be scared.

Take care,

Humza

P.S. Happy Transplanting!!!!!!!!!!
