When Ben stopped needing blood tests or medicine he did not need his line anymore. This was about 3-6 months after his transplant and then it was taken out. Ben could then go swimming and have a proper deep bath!! Ben didn’t need to come to clinic as much then too.
We hope Ben’s story has helped you learn about transplant and understand what is going to happen. If you can think of anything else that you’d like to know, ask the doctors and nurses at your hospital.
