My mother has undergone liver transplant at the age of 63 and it has been 31 days post surgery. As of now she is all fine. How is her life ahead?What all precaution she needs to take ? Is she out of risk now? What are the complications that could happen? What is the life span after this? How much more time does she be very cautious?

Ans: Hello. While transplant is viewed as a new lease on life, it is a slightly different life with a lot more care especially after liver transplant. It's still quite early in her journey but the hardest part is over. In the next 2-3 months, she needs to be very careful with her medications and follow ups, so as to prevent and recognize any problem early. After about 6 months post-transplant she can be more relaxed. Life span will depend entirely on the underlying condition for which she received the transplant and how much care she takes of the new liver. All the best!

Question by Anil - Mar 17, 2025Hindi

Career

I completed my masters in Dec 2023 and did internships until June 2024. I then joined a startup in Sept 2024 but I left after 3 months due to false commitments, toxic work culture, and a family emergency. Now that my last formal experience was in June 2024 (excluding the short stint), will recruiters see this as a career gap? And am I not eligible for any future job opportunities with this profile?

Ans: Please never think in this line. Three months is a very small time. I counselled people who continued their career after three years of gap. So be rest assured. You are totally eligible for any future job and I am sure within a very short time I will receive a positive message from your side. I am always there to help you. Best of luck.
