Wow that's really impressive!

Should happen more...

I would so do that....it's amazing to me how they are doing more and more of these multiple transplants.

I just read an article in our local paper a couple of weeks ago about a former resident here that just participated in a three way transplant.

This is great, its should be mandatory for all the good organs to be removed and donated when someone dies.

I agree....but with some organs, it is still better to get them from a living donor.
