Thanks for the update. God is good.
If she’s at Children’s Hospital, she couldn’t be in better hands.
Pennsylvania girl's double-lung transplant a success, family says
Thank God! Children are not 2nd class.
Calling the surgery part of a transplant “successful” is misleading in the extreme.
The actual, physical transplant is very easy, and almost never “fails”.
It’s what happens after that’s a problem - in the case of lung transplantation, a very, very big one. The five year survival is 55% and the ten year survival is only 30% - these numbers have not moved at all in the last ten years or so.
