[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I realize people are skeptical about this, but trust me on this one.  There is no way to "jump the line" in organ donation, unless you have a family donor.  It just doesn't work that way.  The article I saw said that Cheney was on the list for 20 months.  Been VP has nothing to do with anything.[/quote]

Trust me on this... What exactly are your credentials or area of expertise that gives you the knowledge that you can't "jump the line"?

Do tell.[/quote]

I am a transplant recipient and active in the transplant community.[/quote]

I respect your self imposed credentials but I am in the belief that money can buy anything, and I am fairly certain, despite your disagreement, that Cheney and his doctors were able to finagle this so he was guaranteed a heart.[/quote]

You have a "belief", I have experience.  Call that "self-imposed credentials" if you will, but you have no experience with this process.  Believe all you want, but it doesn't make it true.[/quote]

Pardonnez-moi, I do have experience in this ring as well. Why would you assume I had no experience with transplants?

Experiences differ, my friend. My experience shows me the system can be manipulated. My FIL and grandmother both have had transplants. FTR, I doubt you are privy to the actual decision making process beyond [/quote]
