I remember last year one day I thought for the whole day that a friend of mine had died. When I found out it was someone else with the same name I was very relieved. (Even though, you know, still sad about the girl who did die.)

What an incredible story! I hope you have a chance to talk to him again and catch up on his amazing life. I assume surviving three transplants means there have been some pretty severe highs and lows in his life. That must make for an interesting person.
Think he'll be shocked by your econ godessness or do you think he expects this from you?

6. Yes, I'm following you |
|
Advancements in transplantation are quite rapid, I think. It was only some decades ago when it was considered a breakthrough for a transplanted organ to survive for a matter of days. Now there are some fortunate enough to be given years of fruitfulness.
Good news for him, good news for you and his significant others. And, good news for me in a way - giving myself a bit more belief can only help.

My cousin has had three kidney transplants and is now doing well.
Let this be a lesson to everyone... SIGN YOUR ORGAN DONOR CARD!!
