Gift of Life 82 The Organ Transplant Podcast 2025-11-18 05:23:03

This week, BJ sits down with Tim Andrews, a true pioneer in the transplant world and an inspiration to anyone who believes in the power of science and second chances.

 

Tim made medical history as the longest-living person with a pig kidney transplant, thriving for nine incredible months before the organ was removed. His story reads like science fiction — but it’s 100% real. Now, Tim is once again waiting for a miracle: a living kidney donor.

 

Despite being back on dialysis, his spirit remains strong, his humor intact, and his message clear — hope and innovation can change lives.

 

If you or someone you know would like to see if you can help Tim, please visit the Mass General Hospital website at www.massgeneral.orgAttachment.png for more information.

🩸 Tim’s blood type: O positive.

Let’s find Tim a kidney and keep this incredible story going.
