11:30pm tonight Tuesday 9/17.

'Life and Death' for the whole half hour show

Would you risk your own life and undergo major surgery if it could save

someone else's life? As one patient in need of a liver donor found out,

few would. Even members of his own family hesitated to go under the

knife for him. In this special " Nightline " half-hour, ABC's Donvan

traces one man's struggle to get the liver transplant he needs to

survive.

There is a transcript of show and a 7 minute video at

http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/story?id=3614285 & page=1

The patient had PSC. Both he and the donor will be answering questions

about the successful transplant over the next couple of days. Not sure

if that will happen in the Comments section or where.

The show was pretty good. It was amazing to see a half hour on TV dedicated

to PSC and liver transplants. I did e-mail Dziemian to wish him well

and to thank him for being so public about his liver transplant.
