Over 103,000 people in the U.S. are currently on the waiting list for a lifesaving transplant, with a new name added approximately every 12 minutes. But 7 percent of those on the waiting list will die before they are able to receive a transplant. What’s wrong with the Organ Donation System? Take a look with us at the ethical, legal, political and economic issues surrounding organ transplants. Authors Abrahams and Steve Farber follow the story of two patients on the kidney transplant list as they explore how to fix America’s Failing Organ Transplant System. Abrahams appears on Full Power Living on January 14.
