[quote=Anonymous]Let's assume that the following are true: 1) the child was denied the transplant based primarily upon her intellectual disability and is otherwise a viable candidate for continued survival and quality of life afterwards 2) an adult kidney could be transplanted into this child, and a family member is a match I sincerely hope that the parents are pursuing another hospital to do the procedure. While outrage at CHOP would be completely understandable given these assumptions, presumably another hospital or institution would accept the girl for a transplant, and the primary focus should be moving on and and getting it done elsewhere to ensure the child's continued survival.
