All email to TransWeb is read by the webmasters, and we
really enjoy hearing from our visitors. However, we get such a large volume
of email that we can't answer each message individually.
You
may find the answer to your question below, or it may be a subject that
we will treat in a future expansion of the site. Stay tuned
to
What's New on TransWeb!
| Looking for a transplant center or a doctor? |
TransWeb cannot make recommendations. However,
there is listing
of transplant centers in our reference section. |
| Want to get a donor card? |
If you want to donate your organs and tissues,
you can get a donor card
to carry, but the most important thing to do is to tell your family
your wishes. |
| Looking for help on a report, project,
or speech? |
TransWeb can't give individual help, but you will find
a lot of useful information on our pages. Please use our Search
Page, Subject
Index and Reference
Desk. Students (and teachers) should be sure to try
Give Life: The Transplant
Journey, which is a tour through the donation process,
and The Transplant
Recipient Journey, which is designed to take you on a
trip through the transplant process. |

| Need medical advice? Want to find out
more about your transplant drugs? |
Ask your doctor! TransWeb cannot give individual
medical advice; however, many medical issues are addressed in our
Frequently Asked Questions area, and
in Ask TransWeb. Also try our search
function at the center/top of all our pages.
All the information we have on transplant medications
is given in the Medications
section and in Ask TransWeb. |
| Concerned about someone who needs a transplant
right away? |
We are, too, and we hope the call comes soon.
Unfortunately, the only thing you can do to reduce their waiting time
is to work to promote organ
donation. |
| Wondering where to get the money to pay
for the transplant or medications? |
Contact one of the financial-related
organizations listed on our Support Groups page. |
