Unless they are going to just let a set of lungs die, I don’t have an issue with following the rules. There has to be some basis for the decision, and as sad as it is, a decision has to be made.

But what if the 10 yr old has been determined he or she can accomodate the adult lungs as in this case but a 12 yr old is a tiny frame? Using age is not a good way to determine eligibility.
