>>>I don’t think we’ve established that any such choice in recipients is in play here. Do you have specific information on this case or are you speculating?

No, at this point there is no choice between recipients because at this point there is no lung (Headline is overly sensationalistic). What the parents are proposing is for the child to be added to the adult list. So, there could come a situation where there would be a choice among recipients.

That’s as I understand it as well. Forgive me for possibly mischaracterizing the debate, but what I’m getting here is the aroma of “it’s too bad that the girl will die, but the important thing is that The Rules remain inviolate.” That’s the sort of attitude I’d expect out of a death panel but not on a conservative forum. Possibly I’ve misinterpreted.
