Tom Terrill / lung transplants

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I just had to pipe in about Tom Terrill as he is on our Board of

Directors and is a friend of mine. He's doing pheonomenally well

after transplant. He came out to our support group and gave the

members hope. And as the discussion is going, different hospitals

have different criteria for lung transplantations. Just because you've

been turned down at one doesn't mean another hospital will accept you.

A good website to check out is www.unos.org. The website has a lot of

valuable information on lung transplantation. Another one of our

Board members had a transplant last year @ age 71 at the University of

land. He is also doing very very well. Keep the faith. Don't give

up.
