The man said to the agent, "I'm flying to Los Angeles but I would like this bag to go to Portland, this one to Albuquerque, and this one to Sioux Falls."
The agent looked suitably shocked and said, "Sir, there is no way we can do that."
"Why not?", replied the man, "You did it last time".
Youngest UK organ donorIn 2014, Teddy Houlston became the youngest organ donor in Britain, aged only 100 minutes. The baby's early death after delivery was anticipated because during the pregnancy a rare abnormality had been detected. Anencephaly was a lethal condition in which the brain and skull would not properly develop. Teddy's twin was born healthy, but it was known Teddy's life would be extremely short. Arrangements had been made in advance by the parents to permit donation of his kidneys and heart valves. Surgery began three minutes after death at the University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff. Teddy’s two kidneys saved the life of an adult renal patient. The parents are proud of this good outcome.« |
