Join us for this episode of "Growing the Gift."  where we replay "Docs with transplants: Including considerations for women " from the 2024 Pediatric Transplant Conference, part of National Pediatric Transplant Week and National Donate Life Month featuring Julie Bonn, MD (liver recipient), Assistant Professor in the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Nutrition at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center Silke Niederhaus, MD (kidney recipient), Associate Dean for Faculty Affairs and Professional Development at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and a Clinical Associate Professor of Surgery Kristen-Allyson Ramones, MD (lung recipient), Pediatric pulmonology fellow at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital Sara Kathryn Smith, MD (liver recipient), Medical Director of Pediatric Liver Transplantation at Johns Hopkins University. Hear from women who are transplant physicians who have lived experience in the world of transplant. Not only do they manage transplant patients but they are recipients themselves. They will address special considerations related to mental health, birth control, fertility and pregnancy. Intro/Outro music: "Parasail" by Moby. Used with permission.

The "Growing the Gift" podcast is about pediatric transplant recipients from the eyes of those who live it every day: caregivers, parents, the clinical team, and the community.

We know that being a transplant family comes with unique challenges, and we want to provide a space for you to feel seen, heard, and understood. In each episode, we will explore a different topic related to transplantation through interviews with experts and families like yours.

We hope this podcast will be a source of information and connection for you as you navigate your transplant journey. Thank you for being part of our community, and happy listening!
