Duke Lung Transplant Friends Articles

This section is reserved for articles written by Duke Lung Transplant Patients /Caregivers and medical professionals about going through lung transplant at Duke.  Through these articles we hope to provide everyone involved in Lung Transplant at Duke a better understanding of the process.  The more information patients, caregivers and families have, the better prepared everyone will be to go through the experience with greater confidence.  As stated throughout this website, each transplant experience is unique with its own joys, problems and stresses.   Consequently, the information offered here should be taken in a broader, general sense rather than a "written in stone" sense.
