Not quite new. Used but in good condition I would bet.

Question... what is the prognosis after lung transplant?

Is she then cured, or does this come back?

You never know if I know one person that got “new” lungs that had a fungus. Had to have second tx.

I am praying for the little girl.

My heart goes out to the family who gave the little girl a chance of life.

Also, thinking of those who are in need of a miracle themselves.

Used but in good condition I would bet.

Much better than mine, I'm sure.

Prayers up for the kid.

It is a bitter sweet victory, Some adult probably with children had to drop back. Having said that, I pray that Sarah will do well. She still has a hard row ahead. It is trading one illness for another.

A beautiful, brave child and a feisty, tenacious mother who wouldn't take “No” for an answer. May God bless and grant grace to them and their family. Prayers for a successful outcome.

I read somewhere that this lung will also end up having problems....it just delays inevitable, although they are doing great research in CF, and who knows, could come up with a cure.

Thank you. I was afraid of that. I do hope they can come up with something.
