:15:10. > :15:14.15th? I had had so many false calls I thought I would be let down again.
:15:15. > :15:22.When they picked me up, the coordinator told me it was going
:15:23. > :15:29.ahead, I was like, what? ! How do you feel now? Great. You ard here to
:15:30. > :15:35.say thanks to the team. Ill, you had a heart transplant seven ye`rs ago.
:15:36. > :15:44.You want to say thanks to the donor, don't you. What do you know about
:15:45. > :15:50.them? It was a man of 42 ye`rs of age. I have written to the family
:15:51. > :15:54.expressing my gratitude. Words really can't express the gr`titude I

:16:28. > :16:32.27 years. It does not sound like a lot, is it because of the l`ck of
:16:33. > :16:38.Oregon's? You are right, but we are grateful to the people that do
:16:39. > :16:46.donate. The donation rate is increasing, the last year wd have
:16:47. > :16:54.had 60, compared to 30 in 1887. I expect the next 1000 will bd done in
