But how many patients in need of ANY organ transplant(s) receive not just one heart for transplant, BUT ALSO A SECOND HEART LATER ON!?
Every ten minutes, someone is added to the national transplant waiting list.
On average, 22 people die each day while waiting for a transplant.
One organ donor can save eight lives. ([https://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/)](https://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/))
What about the next patient(s) on the waiting list? How many die while waiting for their "first" organ transplant while some special people get to go to the front of the line again?!
