How do people feel about xeno transplantation? The most recent compassionate care case was done at NYU by Dr Montgomery, and the patient is doing well!
I am so excited to hear about her progress and have hoped for the future - how do you feel?

I’m willing to give it a try if possible. I have built up a lot of antibodies in the 35+ years of my transplant. I hope that the process continues and is improved towards better outcomes. I personally believe that transplantation earlier in the course of organ failure can result in longer graft life, and xeno transplantation could be the answer.

I don't think I would ever do it personally. I have a lot of questions and reservations and concerns, and it's still too new for me to really get behind the idea. I am interested to see what happens in the future, though.
