You are right, there are requirements a patient has to meet. My wife had a knee replacement 4 years ago.
Over the past 27 years, I have had so many colonoscopies that I lost count.
Angiograms, upper GIs, CT scans, MRIs, MRCPs, ERCPs, stents in my major bile duct, lots of blood drawn, and for ALL of these procedures, I either had to fast or meet some other criteria beforehand.
But the big one was receiving a new liver earlier this year after being on the waiting list for 4 years. No alcohol, eating right, exercising regularly, and regular blood tests to gauge my liver function. I had already been “vaccinated” when I got the call, finally.
I think it’s reprehensible that a hospital turn someone down when it’s a matter of life or death.
Could she petition another transplant center to do the surgery? Sure, a patient CAN be tested and approved for transplant at MULTIPLE centers, to enhance their chances, but in her case, how long will that take? I don’t think she has the luxury of that much time.
She needs a good lawyer. If it was me, I’d find a damn good one. I’m sure that hospital doesn’t need or want the bad publicity or cost of a huge lawsuit.
Anyway, that’s my $0.02. 🙂
The transplant team never actually said get the jabs or no transplant. Just urged that I needed it. Still on the transplant list but no indication it would be sooner. I’ve been on the list for 3 years. Would you do it again?
It sounds like you’ve been through the wringer, but are still kicking.
What I am hearing is “Jab or no transplant”. No option, like, for instance, having and recovering from COVID, no option like, early treatment of a COVID infection to lessen it’s severity.
What this is doing is making the “jabbed” a superior class.
I guarantee you the hospital will accept organs from an unjabbed person who met his demise.
So I suspect that by condemning the unjabbed to death, you’re going to drastically reduce the number of people willing to donate organs.
If the process for selecting transplant recipients is not fair and ethical, at least to some degree. This is not fair (and there are other options to treat COVID besides “the jab”) I won’t even consider donating organs to support this abomination. I think that other people might feel the same.
That’s one way to make the problem go away. No transplants for anyone. These people know not what they do.
Good luck to you and may you live a long life.....
