There have always been "tragedies" in the health care system. Both my parents died because they were already old enough, according to their individual doctors, and advanced care wasn't given to them appropriately.

As for this transplant issue...there have always been issues, imo, there as well, it's just no one ever brought them to light. But I thought under the new plan that children received their care, including preexisting conditions (whereas adults do not.)

Bottom line on the transplants though, one societal group tends to need them most, yet donate the least, just like with blood. Until we all give our fair share, if we are able, there will always be tragedies.
