Not car related but cool anyways...

Here are a few pics of the heart transplant reunion at Loma Linda yesterday...It was a great time.

Holly was transplanted in 1990 at the age of 5 1/2 months. She was heart transplant #77 under the age of 6 months (they divide them up newborn to 6 months and 7 months to adult). They are now above #550 newborn to 6 months of age! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif So, if you didn't know why I have the line in my signature about donating life...hopefully it's a bit clearer now!

On the left Jeanette...heart transplant coordinator (was a nurse when Holly was at Loma Linda) Next is Holly...then Kay Ogata who was a transplant intake nurse/liason when Holly was at Loma Linda

This is a picture of Holly with Dr. Leonard Bailey...who was Holly's Transplant surgeon. He is looking good after going through throat cancer a few years ago.

The last time he had seen Holly was in 2000...and he immediately knew who she was. What a remarkable man.

Here's a group shot of just a few of the over 500 heart transplants that Loma Linda has done in the past 21 years...See if you can find Holly and her friend Adam (who is standing next to her)

Here is a picture of Adam and Holly at the reunion. In 1990, Adam was transplanted a week after Holly...and his birthday is a week before Holly's. Adam has had some problems since his transplant. In fact, Adam had another heart transplant in 1996 and just recently went through a kidney transplant (In May of this year). His mother Gloria donated one of her kidneys to Adam!

It's good to see two good buddies together again...as they did everything together when they were babies. We found out that Adam and his mom have moved to Palm Springs...so they will be coming out for visits pretty soon.

I hope that you enjoyed the pics!
