Yeah, it means they have more time to evaluate the heart and get a good match

Now that is amazing. I always thought this would be a better solution, but i doubted they could manage it. They've proven me wrong on one count. Good work

A big

Great news that more people may be saved.....carry those donor cards and register if you want to help

I don't have the guts to carry round a donors card (excuse the pun)

Don't know why though - it just seems weird when I think about it :/
