  • Resumen

  • In this episode, Dr. Kelley Hitchman, who works behind the scenes to successfully pair patients with living donors, shares her insights into the world of organ donation. Through her involvement in a three-way paired exchange program and her co-founding of a donor advocacy group for athletes, she emphasizes the importance of dispelling myths and normalizing living donation.


    Dr. Hitchman discusses the concept of domino donation (a procedure in which an organ is removed from one transplant candidate and immediately transplanted into a second patient, with the first patient receiving a new organ from a deceased donor) and addresses the misconception that living donation leads to physical limitations.


    Her message underscores the need to confront fear and embrace the opportunity to save lives through living donation, advocating for a society where organ donation is viewed as a normal and selfless act.
