Again, I'm not a living donor but I am the recipient of a living donor! In Feb. of 2007, I found out after 18 yrs of a liver disease known as PSC that I now had bile duct cancer. I went on the transplant list immediately but was told that if I waited, the cancer would spread and I will no longer be on the list.

News spread quick and I had 3 ... See Morefamily/friends that were willing and able to be tested. My brother was the first to get tested and amazingly enough he was a match. On April 19, 2007 my brother gave me the gift of life! I see life SO differently now. I am truelly blessed by his kindness and generosity!

This is a remarkable film about what it's like to live with kidney disease and about living kidney donation. This site also has a "Myths and Realities Quiz" to test your understanding of donation.

American Transplant Foundation The American Transplant Foundation was pleased to announce the release of "On the List," written by Steve Farber and Harlan Abrahams, in August 2009. This compelling new book examines the ethical, legal, political, and economic debates over organ transplant policies as two very different families navigate the transplan...t maze.

The American Transplant Foundation has joined the "On the List" book tour in several cities around the country to promote organ and tissue donation. This album includes some of the photos from the stops on our tour.

Learn more about the tour at http://americantransplantfoundation.org/onthelist.htm

Hi, I just read "On The List" and found it to be a real eye opener as a transplantee. I would encourage anyone who hasn't read the book yet to buy it. Thanks.
