Transplant Chats With Eliza

In this special episode we celebrate all things Organ Donation.
Eliza is joined by a new co-host, Hannah Sharma, a heart transplant recipient and friend of the show (episode 8).
It is Organ Donation Week and to us, that means another excuse to spread awareness about this cause which is very close to our hearts (pun intended). We discuss Hollywood’s depiction of organ donation, how donors are matched to patients in need, donor families and the importance of talking to your own family about your future wishes.
Listen out at the end for a montage of thoughts from some of our transplant community, our families and friends. Credit to Dave Webb (episode 11) for the lovely piece of music.
