Olen Vanessa Heaney ja tämän lisäksi... A woman who donated a kidney to a stranger has met the young boy whose life she saved. A new technology could dramatically increase the number of available organ transplants. The impact of this product is typically increasing the number of organs that are being transplanted, something between 20 and 30 percent.
Se on myös media-plattformi, jonka järjestäjät yrittävät vaikuttaa huolimatta. Lisäksi se on Grand Prix kivien kanssa ja ongelmallinen ryhmä kivien kanssa. Se on todella helpompaa mennä elämään, kun minulla on se asia, jota voin tehdä kädessäni. Ja se on saanut minulle niin helpompi liittyä yhteiskuntaan.
We start the program with a rare meeting between an organ donor and the young boy whose life she saved. Ali Coyle had agreed to donate one of her kidneys to a stranger, and she was matched with five-year-old Xavier. It's unusual for living donors to meet those who receive their organs, as very little information is shared. But Ali, who's 40 and from Northern Ireland, wrote to the boy's family and included a toy plane from the airline she works for as a pilot.
They used that information to track her down and got in touch via social media. Xavier's parents, Hira Zahir and Uma Saeed, who live in London, explained why it was important for them to meet her. It was a rollercoaster ride for us, to be honest. Xavier, previously, I remember he used to not eat well. It was a struggle for me, giving him medicines, giving him pills.
He were not growing properly. But after the transplant life changed. He is here all healthy, happy, running around. No one can tell by looking at him that he got his kidney transplant just this year. Yeah, luckily he is like very energetic after the transplant surgery. Even after the transplant a couple of months he had like a sports day.
Hän on saanut ensimmäisen kappaleen. Hän sanoi, että voin mennä hyvin nopeasti. Haluan todella keskustella ja kiittää sitä henkilöä. Kun hän antoi kartan, minun rauhojeni ei voinut pysyä loppuun. Se oli kaunis hetki saada kartan hänelle. Ja lopulta olimme onnistuneet keskustelemaan häneltä. Hän on osa perheemme nyt.
Hän oli meiltä iso isä, olen varma. Kun minä tapasin hänet, en pystynyt lukumaan. En pystynyt lukumaan häneltä. Se tuntui niin kuin olisin keskustellut isäksi. Hän on isä.

Chapter 2: What innovative technology is increasing organ transplant success?
Tämä mahtava mahtava mahtava mahtava mahtava mahtava.
It's actually moving. It's moving ever so slightly as it takes on volume, absolutely, yes. So this is what our clinical team has experienced every day using the machine, that kind of thrill of a liver coming back to life. Obviously, everything we're looking at is the result of years and years of research. Where did this begin, Craig?
Järjestäjät tästä yrityksestä olivat vahvistuneet tarpeeksi, että organit voidaan parantaa, kun ne ovat olemassa ympäristössä. Tämän kautta katsomme aikaa. Jos organi tuntuu 6.00 päivästä ja ryhmä on työskennellyt koko ajan, he voivat nyt mennä kotiin. He voivat lopettaa ja tulla takaisin uudelleen seuraavalle päivälle. Tämä on perustusjärjestelmän tehtävä.
So the impact of this product is typically increasing the number of organs that are being transplanted at the centers that are deploying this as the standard of care. Something between 20 and 30 percent. So 20 to 30 percent more transplants are happening thanks to this product.
There are a few benefits. First, as we've just heard, the surgical teams have more time to prepare for an operation, knowing that the machine is keeping the organ going. And second, potentially more livers can be used, because the machine has a screen which shows the surgeons just how well the organ is actually performing. David Nasralla is a liver transplant surgeon who took part in the first clinical trial back in 2013.
Nyt päätöksentekijöiden päätöksentekijöiden päätöksentekijöiden päätöksentekijöiden päätöksentekijöiden päätöksentekijöiden
So what normothermic machine perfusion allows you to do is to put much more hard objective numbers into that decision making. So it keeps it alive, we can measure it, and it improves it too? It probably improves the liver. It's difficult to say definitively that it does, but what we see after the liver has been transplanted is that the way the recipients behave is as if they have received a better liver. David put me in touch with one of his patients, Lisa Pengelli.
Koska livenä oli laitettu tähän koneeseen, se tarkoittaa, että hän voisi sitten huomioida ja huomioida, kuinka hyvin se toimii, ja todella olla varma siitä, ennen kuin hän tekee operatiota. Ja operatiota meni hyvin. Muistan, kun aloitan intensiivisen koulun, tunnen vain hyvin, mutta todella hyvin. Isäni kommentoi, että olen koneet, jotka eivät enää ole jääneet.
They didn't have that yellowy tinge. Yeah, no yellowy tinge. I didn't look ill. So 100 machines are currently being used in Europe, North America and Australia. And the company is also developing a machine which can work on kidneys too. Claire Bowes reporting and you can hear more on People Fixing the World wherever you get your BBC podcasts.

Chapter 3: What is the story behind the Cow Grand Prix in Switzerland?
Seuraavaksi meksikön ja amerikkalaisen journalisti, joka on tehtävä missiota, jotta voimakkaat kertovat. Emily Flores on edustajana media-plattformista, joka on tehty nuorten ja vanhemman ihmisen kanssa. Se on yksi eri tavalla. Hän on puhunut Happy Podin Holly Gibbsin platformista ja miksi hän valitsi, mitä jotkut voivat nähdä kontroversiollisena nimessä. Se on kaikki omassa keskustelussa nuorten ja vanhemman ihmisessä.
And I think Cripple Media in particular is all about putting young disabled people in specific in the center. So Cripple Media is the first ever media platform that's run by and for young disabled people. So I grew up as a wheelchair user. I'm a full-time wheelchair user. And I noticed that growing up there was a lot of unspoken misconceptions about disability. There's a disability writer that said it best. It's almost like when you meet people, it's like they're kind of reading tea leaves about your future like,
Oh, it's so sad that you're going to have such a sad future. But there's really nothing sad about it. And I think that's part of the problem culturally is that disability is not seen as a cultural identity. And the reason why we named it Cripple Media was 90% of it was a straight up value from our generation, which is that Gen Z is unafraid to kind of
Muuttaa narratiivia ja ymmärtää vaikeita todellisuuksia. Mitä sanoisit ihmisille, jotka eivät ymmärrä sitä? Mielestäni on hyvä alussa olla hieman yllättynyt, hieman poistunut, mutta itse asiassa mitä haluaisin soittaa, on yllättymistä. Se on myös täysin normaalia olla yllättynyt.
or to be uncomfortable when meeting a disabled person for the first time. Because I think it's totally natural for somebody to, you know, be scared of something that they've never, of something different. But I think what follows after that, it's important to foster curiosity, to kind of lead with questions rather than assumptions.
Representation is so important. It changes the way that we think, it changes the way we treat each other. And I think when we see different types of bodies, different communities, different identities on TV, it really changes the way that we think of other people. Why journalism and what barriers did you overcome to get into the position that you're in? I actually came through journalism through One Direction. So...
So it all started from the boy band Wonder Action. I was about like probably 11 years old and my hyper fixation was them. You know, I loved reading and writing. That's all I knew. I actually started a fan page. I had like 20k followers. Throughout that era, I started to learn about like, you know, running and building a community, like what that meant. So when I was like 14, I was like, honestly, that's all the experience I have.
But I want a job. And I just started to look up maybe like writing jobs for young people or teens. I found one posting that they were looking for writers. And I applied. I said that that was my experience. And I got it. As far as for what barriers I overcame, I think it was really all about trying to get people to understand why disability was important.
Tämä oli tärkeä näkökulma, ja miksi se oli tärkeä sanoa. Monet ihmiset yrittivät ymmärtää, millaisia tarinoita haluan kertoa ongelmasta. Ei ollut niin, että haluaisin sanoa, että se on niin syvää, ja se ei ole niin.

Chapter 4: How is Cripple Media changing the narrative around disability?
ja että nämä erityiset elementit pitäisi tulla JS Bachista. Mielestäni ymmärrämme nyt paremmin, että nuori JS Bach yrittäi käsitellä niin paljon musiikkia kuin pystyi tutkimaan muiden komponistien kappaleita. Ja samaan aikaan hän yrittäi Peter Wolney.
Kiitos kun katsoit videon! Quick knit reminders with yarn dragon. This is purl through the back loop. Starting first with yarn in our right hand to purl through the back loop. This is Jonathan Berner, a content creator from Seattle, better known as the yarn dragon. He says that knitting has introduced him to something spectacular.
Olin melkein uudelleen sopiva. Olin menossa moniin 12-kirjoituksiin ja kuulemalla samaa tyyppiä, joka kertoi hänen tarinansa 72. aamuun, ja ajattelin, että niittimäinen olisi hyvä asia, jotta olisin päässyt niissä keskusteluissa. Mutta olin rakastunut englantiaan, historiasta ja todennäköisesti fidget spinnerin aspektista. Se on todella helppoa menemään elämään elämässä.
Jonathan jaoitteli 24 eri miehiä eri maista Yhdysvaltojen kautta Shetlandiin, yli 8000 kilometriä lähellä heidän kotonsa. Se on paikka, jossa on suomalaiset suomalaiset suomalaiset suomalaiset suomalaiset Puhutaan kulttuurista, mutta Shetlandissa kulttuuri on ihmisiä. Ihmiset ovat kulttuuria, ja maa on tehty järviin. Ihmiset ovat yhdistyneet maan kulttuuriin hienosti.
Se tuli mieleen. Se on todella mahtava paikka. Yhteistyössä olemme käsitelleet perusnäyttöä, oppineet Chitlinsen tarinaa ja käyneet paikoillaan, jossa nähdään, kuinka rauhaa jää järviin. Friends Michael Wade and Chuck Wilmisher Jr., who organized the trip, had been inspired by smaller knitting retreats set up in the U.S.
men felt kind of separated and a bit tokenized or marginalized because they were the only guy in their knitting circle. And so the retreats were a great way for men from various kind of walks of life to come together and talk about why they love knitting and why it's soothing and why it's creative and inspiring. Like Michael said, I used to be the token guy at my local yarn shop and just going to
He ovat kuitenkin huomanneet, että enemmän ja enemmän miehiä saa saada fibercrafteja, erityisesti koronaviruksen pandemian aikana, ja kiitos videotutoriaalien sosiaaliseen mediaan. Mutta Maika uskoo, että tämä populariteetipuoli pitäisi mennä vielä eteenpäin.
I think more men should knit because it makes you slow down. It builds patience. It makes you think about the world in different ways. And it makes you empathetic to the fact that knitting things is not easy. And it sort of makes you have appreciation for how difficult it is to create a garment. So I think the world would be better if more men knit. Michael Wade ending that report by Andrea Rasikova.
