When we think about living donor transplant, what we're banking on is the ability of the liver to regenerate itself. now, it's not the same sort of regeneration we think about with the starfish where we cut off the arm and it grows a new arm. with the liver, what happens is the remaining liver gets bigger, and your body knows the size of the liver that it needs, and when it recognizes that there is not enough liver, it sends nutrients and signals to the liver and says "get bigger."
Cutting Thinking Needs
We are always in awe of what the donors have done in terms of providing of themselves to the recipients. it really is a heroic act because people take on themselves not only a risk of death but also pain-and-suffering in order for their loved one to get the benefit of the liver transplant.
Pain Order People
When a liver becomes cirrhotic, those are the common complications. we see that the patients have bleeding from their stomach and intestines. they have abdomens that become full of fluid. their ankles swell with the same type of fluid, and they also can become confused and not themselves. those are kind of the main things that we see when people get end-stage liver disease and have cirrhosis.
Confused People Ankles
End-stage liver disease refers to a liver that's failing, and a very high percentage of those livers are what we call cirrhotic, or the patient's liver has become cirrhotic, and what cirrhosis is, is the scarring of the liver tissue.
Tissues Disease Patient
Pretty much everybody knows there are not enough organs for all of those patients who need to get transplants, and what happens is, is that organs are actually directed in liver transplantation to those patients who are the sickest. so the patients who have the greatest chance of dying in the next three months or so are the ones who get the priority for the liver transplant.
Priorities Dying Three
There is a risk of death associated with donating a piece of liver. it's about one in 500 for the risk of death. the risk of death of donating a kidney is about one in 3000, so this is a riskier operation than donating a kidney. the stakes are usually higher for the recipient of the transplant because unlike kidney failure, where you have a dialysis machine, in liver failure we don't have that kind of machine that allows a patient to survive until they can get a cadaver organ.
Risk Kidneys Cadavers
You don't doubt that the lobby supporting the enactment of same sex-marriage laws in different states is politically powerful, do you?... as far as i can tell, political figures are falling over themselves to endorse your side of the case.
Sex Powerful Fall
Sometimes it’s just surreal out there, while you’re running a marathon. people just standing out in the cold, even the rain, cheering for you, blasting music for you. it’s an awesome show of camaraderie and community.

There are many different causes of the scarring. viruses are common. hepatitis b, hepatitis c, what we call autoimmune diseases where the body attacks the liver itself such as primary biliary cirrhosis is an autoimmune disease; sclerosing cholangitis is an autoimmune disease; and so those diseases where the liver is being destroyed by either the virus or an autoimmune disease, it can only scar, and why it doesn't regenerate has to do with the fact that there is this ongoing scar tissue that blocks that regeneration.
Block Viruses Different
If it's a situation in which the public is being given access, you can't discriminate against the media and say, as a general matter, that the media don't have access, because their access rights, of course, correspond with those of the public.
Rights Media Matter
Senator, my answer is that the independence and integrity of the supreme court requires that nominees before this committee for a position on that court not forecast, give predictions, give hints, about how they might rule in cases that might come before the supreme court,.
Integrity Giving Independence
I'm not sure that it's right to view this as excluding a particular group. when the institution of marriage developed historically, people didn't get around and say, 'let's have this institution, but let's keep out homosexuals.' the institution developed to serve purposes that, by their nature, didn't include homosexual couples.
