maryportfuncity 10,013 Posted February 11, 2016 John McCafferty the longest surviving heart transplant patient dies aged 73 from blood poisoning and kidney failure - 33 years after the operation. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3442071/Longest-surviving-heart-transplant-patient-dies-aged-73-blood-poisoning-kidney-failure-33-years-operation.html I once knew a guy who donated a heart. He died in an accident and at the time of his death was physically fit to the point the surgeons would have struggled to believe the quality of the heart they'd just acquired. Since when our deceased friends various mates have both imagined how the recipient might have felt (probably like s/he had just taken a massive hit of speed) and also speculated on how long that lucky recipient might usefully live.

RadGuy 1,605 Posted February 13, 2016 I can't believe it... Probably not big news for Brits. But for us Americans, this is huge news! We're as happy as the Brits were when Thatcher died! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,469 Posted February 13, 2016 I can't believe it... Probably not big news for Brits. But for us Americans, this is huge news! We're as happy as the Brits were when Thatcher died! The person may be dead, but there are many that still support the issues he stood for. Perhaps being the "true patriot" the right wingers are making him out to be, he could have held out until Monday before dying. Or 4th of July. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're as happy as the Brits were when Thatcher died! No ALL Brits were 'happy' when she died. History demonstrates here arrogance but it also shows that she did good in many ways, the wind of change the country needed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
