Actually, there is not a top or bottom of transplant list. Recipients are given grades based on several criteria. The highest grade is A1 which is emergency status, and the patient must meet additional health requirements to be given that grade. A hospital or doctor does not maintain a list. After a battery of testing a hospital board submits results along with recommendations to the national donor organization which can accept or reject them for the list, if accepted they are then graded, it then becomes very complicated.

No doubt it gets complicated...somebody is going to loose.

I understand that she is at the top of the children’s list at the hospital where there are other children as sick as she is though...and that was stated from someone in the hospital working this. Probably because apparently she is dying...and likely have done all those tests etc.
