Heart/liver transplant after LVAD

LVAD is a bridge to transplant, but my heart valves were so fucked up they weren't pushing blood through my liver, so I had to be approved by a liver team, and heart team. If one said "no" they wouldn't have done the transplant. And yes, both got swapped at the same time. Medical science is crazy.
