10. At his age?

Edited on Sun May-08-11 11:51 AM by JohnnyRingo

Isn't that a consideration for most when we go on a waiting list for a donor?
If doctors have to decide whether to implant one in him or a teenager and Cheney gets it, the system is corrupt. If it came from one of my family members, I'd end up on the news.

Reminds me of Mickey Mantle and how he introduced his virgin transplanted liver to the alcohol that destroyed his own over many years. He was on the "waiting list" exactly one day. He only lived a few more months, and was buried with the donated liver.
