In the second part of CF Transplant Stories: 3 Women’s Voices, the conversation shifts to a more open, deconstructed rhythm with collective reflection. The group talks about what it takes to get listed, find a center that will say yes, and stay alive through red tape, denials, and decisions no one trains you for.
They also talk about what it means to rebuild a life after transplant—one that isn’t just about survival, but about identity, connection, and imagining a future again. That future can feel uncertain, shaped by shifting priorities and unexpected realities. From fertility, IVF, body image, and relationships to careers and community, this half is about the messy, ongoing work of finding your way forward.
