I wrote a letter to my donor family a couple of week after my Tx and received a letter a year later. I thought I would alway want to meet my donor family, but after reading the letter they sent me I don't think I would now. I guess it all depends on the family and what kind of letter you receive from them, if you get one...

I still think about writing them back, but I just don't know how to respond to the letter I got from them!

I wrote a letter to my donor family on my one year anniversary (January 2008) and I have not heard back from them. I plan on writing another one soon. I will decide if I want to meet them if they ever respond back to me.

I can't PM you for some reason. I was wondering if you would be willing to tell us what it was that makes you not sure if you would want to meet them.

I don't mind letting you all know what the reason is.

When I read the letter, the family, well actually the son of the mother who passed is the one who wrote me back. There was allot of info. about there life, which I didn't mind that part. But then it was almost like he was feeling sorry for him self, and I can under stand that his mom had died, But I felt like he wanted me to feel bad about it, and really, I already didn't like the fact that I had to wait for some one to pass so I could live, you know what I mean! So that kind of bug me a bit. Anyhow, people also really need to do more research if they are going to say some of the thing they say. He made it seem like now that I have my new lungs, that I don't have to worry about life, my health, or anything around that subject. Like now I don't have to worry about anything. That is so no the case! He seemed kind of mad that his mother was gone, and that there are other people living off her organs! So I didn't really know how to take that! So that is why I don't really think I would want to meet the family, if he really wanted to meet with me I might, but in Canada they don't really let you do that, the Drs.. really don't like that at all!

So when I read the letter I wanted to write back, but I really don't know what to say to him. Any thought on this matter from anyone please, and thank-you...
