cadiomyoapthy. unfortunatly there are many CM families on the boards i use

sorry fio, about making you feel sick. is that where your sister had her ops?

[noddyholder]

that is amazing it will bring hearts success rates in line with kidneys from live donors which are generally better than cadaver transplants as the kidneys have been on ice and sometimes take a while to get going if at all.Fingers crossed for everyone waiting xx

[misdee]

dont worry Fio, just so sad that one palce can make you feel so

much love to you.

ps, why arent you on msn these days?

I saw this in the paper today and immediately thought of you misdee.

Fio, I saw that story too, heartbreaking. Sorry about you too :(

[Blandmum]

I saw this and also immediatly thought of you Misdee and Peter.

So great that it will both up the numbers and probably the 'life expectancy' of the heart as well.

It's brill isn't it misdee?

Seems ages since you had a call .

The little girl on the Heartline board who's on the list is still waiting too. She's been filming today for DoNation/Transplant Week - think she's one of the first case studies on TV that week.

It has been ages since we've had a call. last one was about 3months ago i think. has been over a year since the last 'group' of calls.


Peter has been doing some photos for royal bromptham and Harefield hospital trusts today. Plus some more for thetransplantlog.co.uk

Oh Misdee, I thought it was the call you'd been waiting for then. Fab developments though. Its incredible what they can do now.
