Very exciting time indeed. Hopefully very soon we can clone our own organs too to minimize rejection risks.

I was told about this through Northeastern Hospital in Chicago. I didn't get to have my transplant there bc they told me I was to high of a risk bc I was a single mom! I was financially unstable according to them
