Hello, everybody. Welcome to Health Chatter. Today's episode is on organ donation, which should be really, really quite interesting. Organ donation has a long history and hopefully has some very, very positive implications. So we've got two great guests with us. We'll get to them in a moment. We've got a great crew that always keeps us hopping with great research.

Thanks, Clarence. So first and foremost, either Nicole or Susan, either one of you chime in. Why don't you tell us a little bit about LifeSource to start with?

Thanks, Clarence. So first and foremost, either Nicole or Susan, either one of you chime in. Why don't you tell us a little bit about LifeSource to start with?

So let me ask you, do you have complementary organizations around the country, such as LifeSource in different states?

So let me ask you, do you have complementary organizations around the country, such as LifeSource in different states?

So tell me, you know, historically, you know, when you really go back in time, Is there like an organ that really kind of started this whole process of organ transplantation, organ donation? Historically, for me, it seems like kidney was the first out of the gate, but I might be totally wrong. So what can you tell us about that?

Yeah. And where did it start? Was there a place that it started like or was it kind of in various places around the United States?

Yeah. And where did it start? Was there a place that it started like or was it kind of in various places around the United States?

So for our listening audience, let's try to visualize a little bit the process. So let's just say I need a kidney, OK? And assuming that I'm on the list, which is another question, how does one get on a list? And who do you contact in order to get on a list was part of the process. But then all of a sudden, I'm really in need. What happened?

And so let's just say that there's somebody that can donate here in Minnesota. There's somehow a link that's made on where somebody could use, let's say in this case, a kidney. Then what happens? Okay, so the kidney is taken out. And then what happens? How is it transported from A to B?
