But the transplant team must have known for some time that they might try to use a pig liver to hold over a dying patient. The idea of trying a pig transplant as a bridge did not suddenly occur to them. While Fowler's emergency was all too real, it was an emergency that is easy to anticipate. People die every day because there are no human livers to give them. If the thing to do is tide some or all of them over with a pig's liver, then these plans ought be made known to the medical community and to the patient long before they become comatose
