Glad they wasted a heart transplant on this kid (1 Viewer)

I remember reading this story years ago and agreeing that it would only be fair to give the 15 year old a heart transplant, after all he was only a kid and he deserved a second chance…



Maybe the only people who saw this properly were the Children's Healthcare Hospital of Atlanta. This heart could've been used on someone who would've done something with it… Hopefully he was at least an organ donor.

Cops killed another black kid?

 

[glock]

Feel better?

Feel better?

No, someone probably died bc this hospital was pressured into doing something they didn't want to.

This is just a situation where every ####### thinks they know best (myself included) and they were blatantly wrong. The hospital determined the kid wasn't the right candidate and then were basically bullied into reversing course. They were right with their original decision.

I'm sure someone who was bumped down on this list probably died bc they didn't get the heart that this kid received.

That's so great that you can still live a full and active life after such a major surgery. The wonders of modern medicine never cease to amaze.

 

[squistion]

Yes, all organ donor recipients should have to pass some sort of background check to ensure that they are of the proper moral character before they receive their new heart or kidney. We don't want to see a transplant go to some one we deem undeserving, do we?

Good for him. Sucks for the potential candidate though...

Can they reuse the heart on somebody else?

Only if he was an organ donor.

Except the hospital was doing it as foresight reasoning.

Deciding who gets a life-saving transplant and who doesn't is tough stuff.

What should have happened was getting a surgeon to rip the heart out of his dead carcass and toss the garbage in the nearest toxic waste bin.

:slippery slope:

Amiright?

Actually, my main objection would be making a decision like this based on one's evaluation of the donor recipients lifestyle or backgroun seems to have a "playing God" aspect it to it. But, yes, it would also involve a question of where to draw the line - for instance something like denying a gay man a liver transplant because he contracted hepatitis B through unsafe sex, because he is not one of the deserving.

Seems reasonable to find someone more deserving in that scenario.

Pretty much everyone thinks so.

Far be it for someone to take a heart from one human and put it in another to think he can "play God".

Particularly if it only based on their opinion of their lifestyle which is not shared by everyone.

 

[Das Boot]

So who should be sued for this travesty?

 

[Das Boot]

Among his "likes" is the video game Grand Theft Auto 5. ==> No kidding.


Stokes, of Decatur, allegedly carjacked a Honda, then burst into a Roswell home and shot at an elderly woman as he tried to rob her, WSB-TV reported. The woman was not hit.

“A lady said a person kicked in the door to break into the house. She was inside the living room and saw the suspect, who was wearing a mask,” Lisa Holland, of the Roswell Police Department, told the news station.

Stokes then took off at a high speed as cops chased him down the highway. He smashed into a 33-year-old pedestrian before losing control and plowing into a pole.

He must suck at that game...

This was actually his second attempt at a transplant. He pretty much ####ed up the first time he was given a second chance by "non-compliance" to doctors orders which means alcohol, drug, or disobeying doctors orders.How is he deserving of another chance when he didn't care the first or second time? This boy was a worthless PoS who was on the path of a life of crime.

I'm glad he's dead but feel sorry for those who died waiting for a transplant while this worthless #### robbed them of life

because of behavioral issues and disobeying doctor’s orders

Adult transplant surgeon Dr. David Dean from Piedmont Healthcare told WXIA that a patient said to have a "history of non-compliance" would usually mean they have a history of drugs or alcohol use or don't follow doctor orders.

I agree with you frankly, but I do think non-compliance with doctor's orders is an issue.

[Weeber]

I think he use to be an outstanding citizen but they used a heart that belonged to a criminal. The family of the boy should sue the hospital.

I might be in the minority here, but shouldn't it be a requirement that you BE an organ donor in order to be on the organ recipient list to begin with?

It better be or I'm gonna be outraged!

 

[Run It Up]

Serious question, did the heart come from a criminal?
