Tulsidas Gautam from Chhattisgarh said that he is fit and fine after his liver transplant in Madurai on April 31 and is raring to go back to his hometown.
“We did not have much hope since the condition of his liver was deteriorating fast and he also had a rare blood group,” said Renu Gautam, his wife.
Mr. Tulsidas said that doctors in Chhattisgarh recommended him to enrol in the Tamil Nadu Cadaver transplant programme as he would have better chances of getting a donor. “Once I was informed of a possible organ transplant, I was referred to Apollo Hospitals in Madurai,” he said.
