Re: My wife's transplant is chronicled in a national magazine.
If you are ordinary, then your wife is extraordinary, that takes guts and I wish her the very best in the future.
For those that believe it could happen only in America, I think not. The first lung transplant happened in Canada in 1983 and the first double lung transplant in 1986, both here in Toronto General Hospital. There was of course no charge to the patient as is normal under our health care system.
The persons to thank are the donors and the surgeons involved. Donate your organs when you die and give somebody the chance of a longer life. It is no use taking them to the grave after your death.
After your comments here do not be a hypocrite, donate, the person you save will thank you.
You may not let anyone drive your Crossfire but let someone use your organs when you no longer have need for them.
If you have a heart, give when you die.
