Part 1 A recent PBS documentary called the The Science of Miracles details the history of organ transplants and the challenges doctors and patients face searching for matching donors. WFYI Public Radio has produced a companion series called, Caring for Life. In part one, WFYI News Director Mary Hartnett looks at organ donation policy in the United States, the ethical issues that shape it and why there is shortage of transplant organs.
Part 2 One of the first questions people ask themselves when they are deciding whether to become an organ donor is: What does my religion say? For many, their faith helps them through the traumatic process of transplantation. But for some, their beliefs prevent them from giving or receiving an organ.
In part two of the WFYI series, Caring for Life, Indiana Public Broadcasting’s Marianne Holland looks at the connection between someone’s faith and their role as an organ donor or recipient.
Part 3 Imagine that your health or your life depends on where your name is on a waiting list. That’s exactly what is happening to nearly 99,000 Americans who need organ transplants. Demand has outstripped supply by a long shot. In part three of WFYI’s series on organ donation, Caring for Life, reporter Sandy Roob takes a look at the current shortage and explores some innovative options that could improve the situation.
Part 4 In the fourth installment of WFYI's Caring for Life, independent reporter Colleen Iudice takes a looks at scientific breakthroughs and the future of organ transplantation. The use of genetically engineered animal organs for human transplant procedures is called xenotransplantion, and it could be reality sooner then we think.
