Mother reunites with her children after 100 days of recovery from a stomach, pancreas and intestines transplant

Sarah Granados’ children had to wait more than 100 days to see their mother after she underwent a multi-organ transplant operation.

With tears in their eyes and a big hug, the three children of Granados received their mother at home after the long and delicate recovery. The operation took place on November 14, 2021 at Indiana University Health, more than 500 miles from his home.

It was 100 days of recovery

Doctors diagnosed him with severe gastroparesis, a disorder that slows or stops the movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine, according to the National Institutes of Health, requiring a multiple organ transplant.

Granados had to wait 444 days for the transplant. “He gave me the opportunity to dream of things I hadn’t dreamed of in years because he was too scared,” Granados explained during an interview with Abc News.

The American media reveals that Granados entered the transplant list in 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, and spent much of the time before the transplant in the hospital.

However, it was in November 2021 when she received the call that a donor with a stomach, pancreas and small and large intestines considered perfect for her had been found.

At the time, I was having discussions with my family about possibly having my lines removed and going into hospice because I was ready to be done.

After the operation, Granados stated that he could not eat solid food, so he had to have a feeding tube inserted.

“I owe it to my donor angel and my family to live the best I can, and I think that means sharing hope and sharing joy where I can, so that’s my goal,” Granados added in the interview. (I)
