Fixing America’s Failing Organ Transplant System
By Steve Farber and Harlan Abrahams
Framed by the harrowing story of two patients on the waiting list for a kidney transplant, this compelling narrative explores the problems with America’s transplant policies and offers solutions for a flawed system
Two families came together in the waiting room of a Denver hospital on May 11, 2004; to await kidney transplants for loved ones. In the first operation, Gregg Farber, 32, a real estate executive, donated a kidney to his father, Steve, a 60-year-old Denver lawyer and power broker. In the second, Guatemalan refugee and landscaper Ernesto Delaroca, also 32, donated a kidney to his sister Sandra, 19, a restaurant worker.
