Good Evening Merv,
Have you been in contact with Univerisy Pittsburgh Medical Center?
They have an outstanding, aggressive and successful program for lung transplants.
Dr Choi director, and Dr Kaminski researcher good fellows to interview and bring to others, I recommend.
And there is a Candian Pulmonary Fibrosis org. starting up with Toronto's Dr Charlie Chan as a participant.
If you are not already involved...
Thank You for all that you do.
