Thanks CNN for telling this story! HIV-positive woman donates kidney to HIV-positive recipient in world first cnn.com/2019/03/28/hea…

People with HIV today can’t donate blood. But now they’re able to donate a kidney. washingtonpost.com/national/healt… The Washington Post Lenny Bernstein

Now doctors around the world can do this, provided they use proper screening procedures. Dorry Segev #HIV #Kidney #organtransplant #organdonation #HopeAct #donatelife

THIS -----> Everyone can register as an organ donor, whether HIV+ or HIV-. We have some great partners doing public education right now (like Donor Network West, LifeGift, LifeLink of Georgia, Lifeline of Ohio, Life Alliance Organ Recovery Agency) but there is so much more we can do to get the word out about HOPE.

True story: That presser was straight outta discharge. People have been quite persistent in trying to get stories this last week, and now that it's been 24hrs since yday, am hoping that I get to recover like a normal person. 😶 (High expectations, that's me!)
