You are a surgeon, and have 5 patients that were in a serious car accident that each need an organ transplant. 1 needs a liver, 1 needs a lung, 1 needs a heart, and 2 needs a kidney. Your neighbor has a perfect match for each patient. Would you kill your neighbor to save the 5 patients?

You will not be arrested for killing your neighbor, and all surgeries will save each patients lives.

I’ve watch this show at least 6 times through. I’m in the hospital waiting for a heart/bilateral lung transplant so I thought it would be a good time rewatching it. I don’t remember this line and I can’t stop laughing. Which isn’t great given my situation but it’s hilarious.

I’ve been in the hospital for 84 days waiting for a heart/bilateral lung transplant. My sister made a gofundme, I would be very grateful if anyone could support and my gofundme !

I can’t seem to post links. So I hope this is ok. https://gofund.me/c9fde15f

Since it could happen at literally any moment, I want to reach out to more people so my mom won’t have to worry about money. It’s not lost on me that times are hard, so I’m only asking this from those who can afford to donate. Please consider in sharing as well.

It’ll go towards things like our hotel because we have to be in the city for a long time afterwards. And my mom won’t be getting a paycheck during this time. Also towards any meds that might not be covered by insurance.

Every cent counts !❤️✨

I’m in the hospital waiting for a heart & both lungs for transplant. I have therapy to keep me moving a little while I wait. My therapist loves Greys & Private Practice & knows I’m rewatching them now. While I watch an episode I do an exercise that corresponds with the number. How great is this?!

Please help. Heart/bilateral lung transplant.

I was born with 5 congenital heart defects & 2 congenital lung defects.

September 4th I was placed on the Heart/bilateral lung transplant list. I’m the very 1st heart/bilateral lung transplant patient with Northwestern & Children’s (Lurie) in Chicago. I’m 1 of 44 people in the US waiting for a heart & both lungs. I’m the only one in Illinois. It’s been over a decade since a heart/bilateral lung transplant has been done in Illinois.

My sister started a gofundme me for my transplant. Once I’m discharged my mom will have to leave work for at least 3 months. Which means no income.

ANY help in supporting GREATLY appreciated. The Gofundme I know times are hard so if you can’t donate please consider in sharing ❤️

Please help us raise funds for a patient who needs a heart and lung transplant.

Hello guys, l'm a resident of Mumbai, currently one of my family friend is going through a life threatening disorder. She has Idiopathic pulmonary artery hypertension which has left heart at just 30% functioning. She needs a heart and lungs transplant which is going to cost 42L, her single mother won't be able to afford that amount alone. Thus she has started a fund raising campaign, we're trying to raise as much as possible funds. All the details regarding her medical issue, her medical reports and her whole story is available on the link posted below. If possible kindly donate to the cause and if you're not able to do so then please forward the fundraiser link.

I’ve recently been listed for heart/bilateral lung transplant. And we need help !

When I’m discharged from the hospital my mom will have to take FMLA from work for at least 3 months and won’t be getting an income. It’s why I’m sharing this in hopes to gain more support.

My sister made aGofundme & Due to Covid we’re having to get creative. So I also started Redbubble store. I made all the graphics to have on tshirts/socks/magnets/totes/masks etc...

I was born with 5 congenital heart defects and 2 congenital lung defects and have gone through many ups and downs. My drs have always been in Chicago and all my open heart surgeries were done at Children’s (now Lurie Childrens) and the transplant will be at Northwestern. I’m the 1st one ever to be a heart/bilateral lung transplant patient with Northwestern and Children’s.

Any help in donating and or sharing is greatly appreciated.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me.

Thank you ❤️

I am a survivor of a pacemaker implantation, two heart transplants, dialysis, a kidney transplant, diabetes, liver stones, a cholecystectomy, a left lung collapse, and a tracheotomy. 1 Man, 3 Hearts, 9 Lives: AMA!
 My name is Christophe Lafontant, I am a thirty-three year old young man, currently living with an extremely rare genetic disorder known as Myofibrillar Myopathy. I first became sick at the age of six; however, I was not fully diagnosed until the age of twenty-seven. I experience substantial weakness in my legs, walking with the use of leg braces and primarily using a wheelchair. I have also recently become aware of significant weakness in my shoulders, hands, and feet, making everyday activities very challenging for me. Over the course of my life, I have undergone a number of serious and complicated surgeries, often accompanied by extremely harsh side effects. I refuse to allow my limitations to hold me back from living a full, happy, and positive life. 
 I  finally decided to share my unique story with the world by self publishing a memoir entitled, [1 Man, 3 Hearts, 9 Lives](https://www.amazon.com/Man-Hearts-Lives-resilience-survival/dp/1518837069/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491663995&sr=8-1&keywords=1+man+3+hearts+9+lives) in the hopes that anybody going through a similarly difficult situation may feel inspired and motivated to never give up! Ask me anything!

I was born with 5 congenital heart defects and 2 congenital lung defects. As I got older more issues started. Fast forward to now...I was recently placed on the Heart/Bilateral Lung transplant list.

Gofundme that my sister set it up on my behalf.

My mom has been a single mom since I was little. After transplant for at least 3 months she will have to take FMLA and won’t be getting paid. This will be used for that purpose and other things.

I’m the very 1st heart/bilateral lung transplant patient for Northwestern & Childrens (Lurie childrens).. not many hospitals in the US have a heart & Lung transplant team that works together and does this type of transplant. I’ll also be the 1st heart/bilateral lung transplant in the last 12ish years.

Please share and to consider supporting my gofundme... every cent counts!

After my transplant my mom will have to take FMLA leave form work and won’t be getting an income for at least 3 months.

This will go towards that and other transplant issues.

Here’s my Gofundme link

I’ve also set up a “store” through redbubble. I made all the graphics for products like T-shirts/magnet/socks/tote bag etc... every cent of my percentage will go towards my transplant funds.

Here’s my Redbubble link

Thank you. And please consider in sharing these links in hope to gain more support.
