1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda gam Nation.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 2: This time yesterday when we came to where I said

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 2: that my friend Melanie and her daughter jess were heading

4
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 2: to the hospital. Melanie donated her kidney to her daughter Jess,

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 2: who was in renal failure. It all went well, So

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 2: I just want to if you're following the story. Mel's

7
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: surgery was in the morning and she headed to recovery,

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 2: so we heard few she's okay.

9
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: All went beautifully, her kidney was perfect.

10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: Then it was Jess's turn, so then in the afternoon

11
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: that kidney was transplanted into her daughter, Jessica, and then

12
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 2: we heard later in that afternoon that her surgery has

13
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 2: gone well as well.

14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: I always imagine they're just lying side by side. No,

15
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: that's what I pictured as well. Handballs it to me.

16
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: That's what I pictured as well.

17
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 2: But they have individual teams, and part of that is

18
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: the protocols of being a donor and a recipient. And

19
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: I was reading up that fifty over fifty percent, but

20
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: only just over fifty percent of kidney recipients or organ

21
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,919
Speaker 2: donors have organs from a living donor from a relative. Wow,

22
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: So that shows that nearly fifty percent rely on organ donation.

23
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: So these Jests and mel were the lucky.

24
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 2: Ones that their tissue sampling and all of that was

25
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: able to allow Melanie to donate to Jess.

26
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: What a world we live? What will we live in?

27
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 2: And so all is well. They've came out of the

28
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: surgery with flying colors and a.

29
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: Few going to relief. Get well ladies absolutely
