“Thank you for this review. I am the person with Donate Life who has the opportunity to read the scripts. I look for one thing in particular, would a scene harm the public’s perception of organ/tissue donation to the extent that it could stop them from signing up to be a donor. Many of the episodes involve patients who receive organs quickly, which can/does occur especially for hearts and livers. But all too often the wait is long and hard.”

“Thanks for the review. With the help of you and people like you, we can get more laypeople turned onto science!”
