5 Years on a VAD
You have six months. Maybe a year. That was reality for heart failure patient Verna Schrombeck. Her condition had deteriorated to the point where treatment no longer helped.

Years later she shares her story. (Source: Mayo Clinic - Medical Edge Video)

Children as Stem Cell Donors in Research: When is it ethical? When is it approvable?
Ethics Rounds: Pediatric Stem Cell Donors Many stem cell transplants rely on pediatric donors. When these transplants occur in the research setting, investigators and IRBs face the question of whether pediatric donors may participate in research studies that pose risks to them and do not offer thepotential for medical benefit. Please join us to discuss the important ethical and regulatory issues that these cases raise, and a proposed framework for addressing them. The program, which involves discussion of pediatric studies at the NIH and elsewhere, should be of interest to individuals involved in research or pediatrics...

They're researching ways to grow organs from a patient's own stem cells. It's called regenerative medicine, and it offers hope for a solution to organ rejection.
