This week we review a recent multicenter, randomized trial pitting 2 different immunosuppressive therapeutic approaches against each other. How did a novel approach of everolimus + low dose tacrolimus compare to more standard MMF + standard, higher dose tacrolimus in avoidance of major adverse transplant events or complications? How did this first ever prospective trial in the pediatric heart transplantation world start and how difficult was it to perform in the absence of corporate or NIH support? Why can these data help inform FDA labelling for this novel approach and why is this important? Dr. Kevin Daly of Boston Children's Hospital shares his deep insights into this work this week!DOI: 10.1001/jama.2025.14338

In this powerful episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with Lucy, a remarkable patient who faced one of the most difficult reconstructive journeys imaginable. At just nine years old, Lucy was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis and later primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), conditions that ultimately led her to undergo a life-saving liver transplant at the age of 26. Her brother became her living donor, giving her not only a second chance at life, but also a new battle: living with the aftermath of a massive Mercedes incision scar, abdominal wall weakness, and multiple failed hernia repairs. Dr. Rahban walks listeners through Lucy's story of resilience, exploring the intersection between reconstructive surgery and cosmetic outcomes. He explains why scar tissue, abdominal wall hernias, and post-transplant deformities are not just functional issues but deeply impact body image and confidence. Lucy's journey highlights how revision surgery is about more than “fixing” a scar — it's about restoring strength, balance, and aesthetic harmony to the abdomen. From failed liposuction recommendations to the dangers of blind fat transfers over hernias, Dr. Rahban exposes the pitfalls of one-size-fits-all surgical solutions. Instead, he reveals the meticulous, individualized approach required in cases like Lucy's — blending the principles of a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), abdominal wall reconstruction, and functional hernia repair into a procedure that is both life-changing and aesthetically transformative. Seven months post-surgery, Lucy shares how she's back to horseback riding, jumping, and training multiple horses daily — a true testament to the power of plastic surgery done right. Together, Dr. Rahban and Lucy shed light on key lessons for anyone considering revision surgery, scar revision, or reconstructive procedures after major abdominal operations: Why transparency and patient education are non-negotiable.The red flags of overconfident surgeons.How to evaluate surgical recommendations that actually make sense.The importance of marrying form and function in every operation.This episode is not just about one patient's story — it's about a universal message: whether it's breast reconstruction, hernia repair, or abdominal scar revision, every patient deserves results that look as good as they feel.

Psychologist and heart-transplant recipient Dr. Brittany Clayborne shares how her own medical journey prepared her to guide her son Micah through sudden heart failure, an LVAD, and a life-saving transplant. She unpacks the family's rare Danon's disease diagnosis, post-transplant cancer (PTLD), and the everyday realities after transplant—meds, setbacks, and hope. You'll learn Dr. Brittany's BRAVE framework for hard moments, how rituals sustain connection during long hospital stays, and how Micah turned his experience into action with Transplant Teens and My Brave Journal. This conversation is packed with concrete tools, compassion, and the reminder that “hope is a team sport.” You do not want to miss this week's episode. Featured moments: 00:00 — Why families need “somewhere to be brave.” 04:50 — Brittany's peripartum cardiomyopathy, ICU wait, and LVAD. 10:05 — PTLD diagnosis and becoming the psychologist she needed. 12:50 — Micah's chest pain → HCM crisis and transplant path. 24:00 — The BRAVE acronym families can use today. 44:00 — “Hope is a team sport.” Transplant Teens' vision. Key takeaways: Use BRAVE in tough conversations: Breathe • Realize feelings • Accept them • Vent/Vulnerable with a trusted person • Elevate above it. Build predictable touchpoints (calls/visits) to anchor kids during long hospitalizations. Teens heal better with peers; if the group doesn't exist yet, create it.

Over 48,000 organ transplants happen each year in the U.S., but alarming new evidence shows that some donations begin before patients are truly dead More than 103,000 Americans are waiting for organ transplants, but safety shortcuts in donor evaluation have raised serious questions about how the system operates In one case, a man declared brain-dead woke up on the operating table moments before his organs were to be harvested — exposing a massive failure in protocol The investigation uncovered that nearly 1 in 3 “approved not recovered” (ANR) donations showed neurological signs incompatible with legal death New reforms now require hospitals to halt organ procurement if any sign of life is present and mandate full reporting to federal regulators

Some blood cancer patients are a facing a terminal disease prognisis after waiting so long for stem cell transplants their cancer is no longer curable. Piece meal funding and a lack of committment from health officials is to blame according to one specialist. The health minister has conceded the long wait times mean some blood cancer patients are enduring additional rounds of chemotherapy to keep the disease at bay. While others have had to wait so long their only option is palliative care. Director of the Centre for Cancer Research at the University of Auckland School of Medicine Professor Peter Browett spoke to Lisa Owen.

The “Whole Eye Transplant Moon Shot” refers to the ambitious research initiative at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute to transplant a whole eye, including the optic nerve, with the goal of restoring vision in blind patients. This project is considered a “moonshot” due to the immense scientific and technical challenges involved in successfully transplanting and reconnecting all the intricate components of the eye, particularly the optic nerve.  The goal is to achieve whole eye transplantation, including the optic nerve, to restore vision in individuals with blindness. The project involves a team of experts in various fields, including ophthalmology, neurosurgery, and immunology.  The primary challenge is regenerating and reconnecting the optic nerve, which is part of the central nervous system and does not readily regenerate in adults.  The research is expected to lead to significant advancements in transplantation techniques, nerve regeneration, and potential cures for other diseases.

Today we sit down with Henry Ford Health Michigan's Hina Desai, an oncology certified social worker with decades of experience, to share her best caregiving tips for those supporting transplant patients. Hina explains that patience, physical stamina, problem-solving, adaptability, and emotional intelligence are essential caregiver skills. We talk about the many roles a caregiver plays — from transportation and medication management to wound care, infection prevention, meal preparation, and emotional support. Staying connected to the healthcare team and keeping friends and family informed are key.We highlight the value of resources like the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's, now Blood Cancer United's, free nutritional consultations. Hina stresses the importance of understanding the Family Medical Leave Act, planning for potential income loss, and connecting with social workers to access financial help from foundations such as LLS, PAN Foundation, Cancer Care, Angels of Hope, New Day Family Foundation, and NMDP.Hina advises enlisting a support network early. Dividing tasks like grocery shopping, meal prep, transportation, and pharmacy runs helps prevent burnout. She reminds us that transplant caregiving is a marathon — caregivers must look after their physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual wellbeing. This includes setting boundaries, filtering advice, staying flexible, and preparing for setbacks such as relapse or unexpected hospital stays.We discuss unique considerations for CAR T, allogeneic, and autologous transplants. CAR T caregivers should watch for neurological changes. Allogeneic caregivers may handle tasks like IV magnesium infusions and monitor for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or veno-occlusive disease (VOD).Caregiving can change relationship dynamics, sometimes causing role reversal. Good communication helps maintain mutual respect. Self-care remains vital: nutritious eating, exercise, spiritual practices, adequate sleep, and support groups can all help sustain the caregiver's energy and emotional health.Hina and Peggy share heartwarming stories of caregivers going above and beyond, from offering a shower to a hospital-bound spouse, to creatively negotiating with doctors so a patient could return to gardening safely. We reflect on the importance of kindness toward oneself, seeking help when needed, and recognizing that caregiving doesn't have to be perfect to be deeply meaningful.  We also highlight three husbands who have stepped up as caregivers to their wives.We close with gratitude for caregivers and the countless ways they support recovery, comfort, and hope for transplant patients.Season 18 of the Marrow Masters podcast is sponsored by Sanofi and Jazz Pharmaceuticals.This season is sponsored by Sanofi: https://www.sanofi.com/And Jazz Pharmaceuticals: https://www.jazzpharma.com/Resources:Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is now Blood Cancer United: https://bloodcancerunited.org/PAN Foundation: https://www.panfoundation.orgCancer Care: https://www.cancercare.orgAngels of Hope: https://angelsofhope.orgNew Day Foundation for Families: https://www.foundationforfamilies.orgNational Marrow Donor Program (NMDP): https://bethematch.orgBMT InfoNet: https://www.bmtinfonet.org National Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKFollow the nbmtLINK on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nbmtlink/The nbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.To participate in the GVHD Mosaic, click here: https://amp.livemosaics.com/gvhd Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When the Beat Stopped: The One Who Found His Faith AgainBefore the hospital gowns and machines, Kyle David kept time for a living—a professional drummer and percussionist whose life moved in rhythm. Then a hurricane evacuation from New Orleans spiraled into a fight with COVID pneumonia, and the beat of everyday life stopped.What followed was a grueling medical odyssey: three hospitals, 50 days in ICU, a month-long coma, and moments when he was declared clinically dead—twice. Doctors said his only chance was a double-lung transplant. Airlifted to San Diego, Kyle spent nearly seven months learning to breathe, speak, and walk again.Somewhere in that long valley, Kyle's faith cracked. He prayed what felt like his last honest prayer:“Lord, either heal me miraculously now—or let me come home. I can't do this another day.”Silence seemed to answer back. For the first time, the drummer who had grown up with church in his bones felt the tempo of belief slipping away.Then came the moment he thought might be his last. During a brief outing from the hospital, Kyle's portable life-support machine failed. With a tracheostomy tube and seconds to spare, he rose from his wheelchair and shouted so nurses and his mother could hear:“Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.”If this was the end, he wanted his final words to be his clearest.Days later, a matching set of donor lungs became available. On March 3, 2022, surgeons performed the transplant that saved his life. Recovery was slow and humbling—scales and rudiments, but for breathing. Yet as his lungs healed, something deeper healed, too. The God who seemed silent in the ICU met him again—quietly, steadily, mercifully.Kyle describes what happened next as a re-tuning of his soul. The brushes became sticks; the metronome clicked again. His near-death season led him into the ancient prayers and steady rhythms of Eastern Orthodox worship, where he found a church that helped him rebuild his life in Christ with reverence, beauty, and community.“If I hadn't walked through that fire,” Kyle says, “I might never have discovered this path. My suffering became a blessing in disguise.”Kyle's story is more than a medical miracle. It's a testimony for anyone who's suffered long, doubted hard, and wondered if the music of faith was finished. God did not waste the silence. He used it to write a new song.Hear the full conversation on Cloud of Witnesses—Kyle's journey from a failing heartbeat to a living hope, from the edge of unbelief to a renewed confession of Jesus as Lord.

Farm Link Hawaiʻi's Claire Sullivan on the recent announcement that it will be carrying fresh milk from Hawaiʻi's last dairy farm, Cloverleaf Dairy, on Hawaiʻi Island; Bahman Sadeghi, who bought the Meadow Gold processing plant on Hawaiʻi Island five years ago, discusses the history of Hawaiʻi's dairy business.

One of the things I've learned in all my years of sharing stories is that our greatest challenges often carry the seeds of our greatest impact. When life hands us trials we never asked for, we can choose to let them break us—or we can use them as fuel to shine a light for others. This episode is about resilience, hope, and how two remarkable people turned their hardest seasons into purpose. I'm honored to bring you this conversation with Brittany and Micah Clayborne, a mother-and-son duo whose journeys will leave you inspired. Both Brittany and Micah have endured heart transplants, life-threatening diagnoses, and setbacks most of us can hardly imagine—yet they've chosen to step forward as advocates, leaders, and encouragers for others walking the same path. Listen in as the three of us talk about: Brittany's journey through heart failure, transplant, stage 4 cancer How she built a career helping others heal through grief psychology How Micah, at just 13, went from being a healthy athlete to facing a heart transplant The powerful moment that sparked the creation of Transplant Teenz — and how it's changing lives Why creating spaces of belonging and community is vital for healing, especially for teenagers How both Brittany and Micah lean on faith, resilience, and mindset to navigate unimaginable challenges The impact of storytelling and advocacy in transforming personal struggle into collective hope How you can help support the mission of Transplant Teenz This conversation with Brittany and Micah reminds me why I believe so deeply in the power of story—it connects, it heals, and it inspires action. Their story is proof that light can be found even in the darkest places. After you listen, I'd love for you to share this episode with someone who needs encouragement today—and if you feel called, check out Transplant Teenz to see how you can be part of the movement to support young transplant patients.

The Powerball jackpot has surged to $1.4 billion, sparking questions about company lotto pools and last-minute ticket grabs. The crew also debated whether Los Angeles feels more like a city of transplants or true locals, with Tim breaking the tension by sharing a funny memory of a third-grade classmate who never wore pants. Nationwide, electrical rates have been climbing far faster than inflation since 2022, fueled by grid upgrades, wildfire prevention, rising demand from AI data centers, and soaring fuel costs. In California, investor-owned utilities have hit customers particularly hard, while Costco's newest rules are stirring plenty of backlash. Finally, just before the Powerball drawing, news broke that Air Canada passengers headed to Toronto had to make an emergency evacuation after a galley fire onboard.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX A 42-year-old man who has lived most of his life with type 1 diabetes has become the first human to receive a transplant of genetically modified insulin-producing cells. This marks the first pancreatic cell transplant in a human to sidestep the need for immunosuppressant drugs. “This is the most exciting moment of my scientific career,” says cell biologist Per-Ola Carlsson of Uppsala University in Sweden, who helped develop the procedure. The new treatment, he says, “opens the future possibility of treating not only diabetes but other autoimmune diseases.” This procedure uses the gene editing technique, CRISPR, to discourage the auto immune attack on the donor cells. Before the transplant, the participant had no measurable naturally produced insulin and was receiving daily doses of the hormone. But within four to 12 weeks following the transplant, his levels rose slightly on their own after meals—showing that the new beta cells were releasing some insulin in response to glucose. even though the new study is promising, it involved just one participant and is therefore preliminary. And longer-term monitoring is needed to confirm the therapy's safety before it can be offered to more people. She also notes that the injected cells produced only 7 percent of the insulin needed for a person to be fully independent of additional medication. The researchers supplied the recipient with insulin doses to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. While Herold thinks it's still too early to consider this approach for a cure, “these options are now here to change the disease in ways that have never been possible before,” he says. “There's tremendous hope.” https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/type-1-diabetes-patients-insulin-production-restored-with-new-cell/ XX   This one is interesting… a recent study shows that children of mothers with gestational diabetes or fathers with type 2 diabetes have higher chances of developing type 1 diabetes than kids whose parents do not have any type of diabetes. Specifically, the study found that children whose mothers had gestational diabetes during pregnancy were 94% more likely to develop type 1 diabetes compared to children of mothers without diabetes. Similarly, having a father with type 2 diabetes was linked to a 77% higher risk. The study also suggests a possible link between maternal type 2 diabetes and type 1 diabetes in children, although more data are needed to confirm whether the risk is real.   "What is interesting is that type 1 diabetes is a disease of lack of the hormone insulin while gestational diabetes and type 2 diabetes stem mostly from the body's resistance to the hormone. What may be happening is that genes, environments and behaviors that create insulin resistance may also, in some cases, trigger the immune reactions that lead to type 1 diabetes," adds Dr. Dasgupta. A 2019 meta-analysis by researchers at Soochow University in China found that gestational diabetes was linked to a 66% higher risk of type 1 diabetes in children. This new study, which includes more than twice as many studies, offers a robust synthesis of current evidence and shows the risk is even greater than previously estimated. It is also the first meta-analysis to examine the link between paternal type 2 diabetes and type 1 diabetes in offspring. "Several mechanisms may be at play. Families often share lifestyle and eating habits, which can raise the likelihood that children will be affected. But beyond that, high blood sugar levels may also cause biological changes in parents that could increase their children's risk of developing type 1 diabetes," explains Laura Rendon, co-first author of the study, who completed an MSc in experimental medicine at The Institute and, as someone living with type 1 diabetes herself, finds deep personal meaning in conducting this research. For instance, the authors suggest that high blood sugar during pregnancy may stress the fetus's insulin-producing beta cells, reducing their number at birth or making them more vulnerable to damage later in life. It may also trigger epigenetic changes—modifications to proteins and molecules attached to DNA—that increase the risk. Likewise, high blood sugar in fathers with type 2 diabetes may cause epigenetic changes in their sperm, potentially influencing their child's risk of developing type 1 diabetes. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-08-diabetes-children-linked-parents.html XX Can a CGM help you lose weight? The company Signos is banking on it – the just got FDA approval for their system, which uses the over the counter Dexcom Stelo. The claim here is that the system will help track how food choices, activity, stress and sleep can all affect metabolism. Signos also works in partnership with the digital nutrition counseling startup Nourish. It currently offers a quarterly subscription plan, including six CGM sensors, for $139 per month. And they tell you don't take any medical actions based on the app's output without consulting a physician. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/fda-clears-signos-over-counter-cgm-powered-weight-loss-app XX Good news for T1D1, a free mobile app that helps people calculate insulin doses, track daily data, and share insights with healthcare providers. After being pulled off the market with similar apps a few years ago, it's now back and FDA approved. Drew Mendelow created the app after his diagnosis at age 13. He came on the show last year and I'll link his story up in the show notes. Diabetes Center Berne provided the initial funding to support the T1D1 efforts to redesign the app per FDA standards.  Comerge AG , the registered manufacturer, enlisted a team of software engineers, regulatory experts, and design professionals to ensure T1D1 was FDA-ready. Dexcom graciously conducted the Human Factors study to ensure safety and accuracy.  ​ ​T1D1 is now FDA-cleared as a Class II medical device and is the first over-the-counter insulin calculator cleared for individuals aged 2 and older. T1D1 is expected to be live in the AppStore and Google Play Store by October 2025. https://diabetes-connections.com/the-fda-took-down-this-teens-free-bolus-calculator-he-needs-your-help-to-bring-it-back/ XX Metformin has been the standard treatment for type 2 diabetes for more than six decades, yet scientists still do not fully understand how it works. A team from Baylor College of Medicine, working with international collaborators, has now identified an unexpected factor in its effectiveness: the brain. Their findings reveal a brain pathway involved in metformin's glucose-lowering action, pointing to new strategies for treating diabetes with greater precision. The study was published in Science Advances. The researchers concentrated on a small protein called Rap1, located in a region of the brain known as the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH). They discovered that metformin's ability to lower blood sugar at clinically relevant doses depends on suppressing Rap1 activity in this brain area.   “This discovery changes how we think about metformin,” Fukuda said. “It's not just working in the liver or the gut, it's also acting in the brain. We found that while the liver and intestines need high concentrations of the drug to respond, the brain reacts to much lower levels.”     https://scitechdaily.com/after-60-years-scientists-uncover-hidden-brain-pathway-behind-diabetes-drug-metformin/   XX Looks like GLP-1 pills are moving ahead. Lilly says it's version helped overweight adults with type 2 lose 10% of their body weights and lower A1C. Just two weeks ago, we were talking about how the same drug in people without diabetes had less than the stellar expected results. Orforglipron is a small-molecule pill that is easier to manufacture and package than wildly popular injectable drugs for obesity, such as Lilly's Zepbound and Novo Nordisk's NOVOb.CO rival treatment Wegovy, which are peptide mimics of the appetite-controlling GLP-1 hormone. In the 72-week study of more than 1,600 overweight or obese adults with type 2 diabetes, those who received the 36-milligram highest dose of orforglipron on average shed 10.5% of their weight, or about 23 pounds (10.43 kg), versus 2.2% for those who received a placebo, achieving the main goal of the trial. Patients on the lowest 6 mg dose of the Lilly drug lost 5.5% of their weight. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2025/08/26/lilly-glp-1-pill-weight-loss/85830686007/ XX     An intervention that combined a low-calorie Mediterranean diet and exercise led to less diabetes incidence in older adults. Men had a greater diabetes risk reduction with the intervention than women. The study was based in Spain, and the diet may not be as easy to adhere to in the U.S. Among nearly 5,000 adults with metabolic syndrome and overweight or obesity in the PREDIMED-Plus trial, those who followed this intervention had a 31% lower risk for type 2 diabetes over 6 years relative to those who received only ad libitum Mediterranean diet advice (aHR 0.69, 95% CI 0.59-0.82). the Mediterranean diet focuses on high intake of plant-based foods, moderate consumption of fish, poultry, and dairy with optional red wine, and low intake of red meats, sweets, and sugar-sweetened beverages. Common foods featured in the diet include extra-virgin olive oil, fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and whole grains. However, Sharon Herring, MD, MPH, and Gina Tripicchio, PhD, MSEd, both of Temple University in Philadelphia, pointed out that this study was conducted solely in Spain, and sticking to this type of diet may be more challenging in countries like the U.S.   "Participants in the study received extra-virgin olive oil to support adherence and retention; in the United States, prices of extra-virgin olive oil have nearly doubled since 2021 due to a combination of factors including climate change, rising production costs, supply chain disruptions, and now tariffs," they noted in an accompanying editorial. "[T]he large number of dietitian contacts during the study may prove difficult to scale broadly in the United States given challenges with health care access and reimbursement for prevention services."         https://www.medpagetoday.com/primarycare/diabetes/117151 XX A group of Canadian researchers has identified an unexpected way to lower blood sugar and protect the liver: by capturing a little-known fuel produced by gut bacteria before it enters the body and causes harm. The findings, published in Cell Metabolism, could open the door to new therapies to treat metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. Scientists from McMaster University, Université Laval, and the University of Ottawa discovered that a molecule generated by gut microbes can cross into the bloodstream, where it drives the liver to overproduce glucose and fat. By designing a method to trap this molecule in the gut before it reaches circulation, they achieved striking improvements in blood sugar regulation and fatty liver disease in obese mice. https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-discover-a-surprising-new-way-to-fight-diabetes/ XX Dexcom, which specializes in technology for glucose biosensing, will lay off 350 workers, with nearly 200 of them in San Diego, according to the San Diego Union Tribune. The bulk of the local jobs being lost are focused on Dexcom operations and manufacturing. The Dexcom development follows cutbacks to Verily, a life sciences company that is a subsidiary of Alphabet, Google's corporate parent. Verily's work included a project with Dexcom on wearable glucose sensors. CEO Stephen Gillett, in a memo obtained by the publication, said there will be “workforce reductions across Verily.” A representative for Verily confirmed to Business Insider that “we have made the difficult decision to discontinue manufacturing medical devices and will no longer be supporting them going forward.” https://timesofsandiego.com/business/2025/08/27/report-life-sciences-firm-dexcom-lay-off-200-san-diego-workers/ XX Front office changes at Insulet. Eric Benjamin, former chief product and customer experience officer, will take the role of chief operating officer, effective immediately. Manoj Raghunandanan Mu-NOHJ Rug-a-nun-da-nun to the position of chief growth officer, leading Insulet's new growth organization. The appointments are some of CEO Ashley McEvoy's first changes since she was hired in April. The appointments come after McEvoy outlined four priorities for Insulet on an August earnings call:   enhancing the company's commercial capabilities, building Insulet's brand and direct-to-consumer capabilities, driving growth outside of the U.S. and accelerating the pace of innovation. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/insulet-eric-benjamin-manoj-raghunandanan-appointments/758668/ XX   XX Want to highlight The Children's Diabetes Foundation in Colorado – they held a medal ceremony for patients of the Barbara Davis Center who've lived with Type 1 diabetes for 50 years or more. There were 87 medal recipients in the ceremony including Dana Davis, Executive Director of the Children's Diabetes Foundation and the daughter of the founders of the Barbara Davis Center. Davis shared: "When you got Type1 diabetes in the 70s, they thought you shouldn't have children. They thought you weren't going to live past 30 or 40. It was definitely very different," Davis said.   https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/barbara-davis-center-celebrates-colorado-type-1-diabetes-patients-milestone/

Physician and public health advocate Judith Eguzoikpe discusses her article, "Hope is the lifeline: a deeper look into transplant care." She pulls back the curtain on the kidney transplant process, revealing that the true journey for patients with end-stage kidney disease is not just a single surgery but months or years of emotional and logistical challenges. Judith shares powerful patient stories that illustrate the fear, frustration, and uncertainty that define the waiting period. The conversation highlights the essential role of health care professionals as advocates who must provide not just information but presence and compassion. She also confronts the stark inequities in the system, where marginalized communities face greater barriers to care. The core message is a call for clinicians to look beyond lab values and recognize that building hope through advocacy and human connection is a critical part of the treatment itself.
