  • glad this is NOT in HD!

  • My new heart I'm getting in 2 months is my brothers. I will try to cinvince him not to do it because he saved me from falling to my death. I must repay him! I don't know what I will do if I receive his heart! My only brother will be gone! He is only 14 and I'm 12! I love him dearly and I couldent live without the person that makes me smile everyday. I just couldent.

  • Do you have to be awake whilst the heart transplant is taking place?

  • the same exact position as the previous one ? does the position of one's heart and the other differ ? i mean from ppl to ppl?

  • Next month my son will have had his new heart for 9 years; without a heart transplant he wouldn't had lived much longer than he had; the anniversary of his new heart is bittersweet...my son received life and I rejoice in it, at the same time I remember the family of the little girl what they are living without. So I cry happy tears and sad tears at the same time. What a beautiful thing the donor family did by donating their child's organs to save the lives of many others...

  • nooo i missed the live surgery :(
