Verbatim
“For children awaiting a transplant, the gift of a donor organ can mean the difference between life and death.”
“[Ultraprocessed foods] have been associated with negative changes in the endocrine system and the gut microbiota, and these could lead to negative neurological outcomes,”
“But some families find comfort in knowing that, if they choose organ donation, their child's heart can help another child live - a legacy of love that continues.”
