Fact of the day 2nd January

[Valentina98]

A very fitting fact for you today

1968 Christiaan Barnard performs the world's second heart transplant on Philip Blaiberg

[Thanksnhs]

Thank goodness for the brave patients that had the early transplants, I could not imagine what it was like back then. Even today the risks is high never mind 54 years ago. I salute them all and the surgeon who had enough faith to actually do the operation with the limited knowledge we had back then. Char

I couldn’t agree more, Char.

We stand on their shoulders.

Thanks Valentina98 for reminding us how very lucky we are.

Happy new year all. xx
