IMPORTANT 4 NUMBERS

The kidneys are organs that can be well looked after with a little more awareness. Treat them well & there is a lot they will do for you. A human can survive with only one kidney. Some of us are born with only one & when they are functioning well, value them. What exactly do they do & what happens if they fail. Listen to the link below & understand what those 4 numbers are.

Remember Count your blessings!

Ending like always with the same words that have now become my anthem:-)

Enjoy listening & Decide to be a LIFELINE to continue to LIVE ON.

Don't think of organ Donation as giving up a part of yourself to keep a total stranger alive. It is really a total stranger giving up all of himself to keep a part of YOU alive.

LIVE ON!

Organ donation is a noble cause & everytime it is spoken about it gives me goosebumps!

I always believed that it is important to be an organ donor.What are the procedures? What are the live donations that are possible? What is cadaver donation & how do you take it forward when you have a choice? Did you know that organs cannot be harvested in case of death at home because even the slightest time lag between the end of circulation & the removal of the organ can make it unusable?

All these & more were what Dr. Sudarshan Ballal, Medical Director Manipal Hospitals & Eminent Nephrologist of Bangalore city, answered in the first episode of this health series on 101.3 F.M. Rainbow on the Health Hour starting 1st October at 6.02p.m. The second episode is happening on the alternate week on 15th October in English. If you love Kannada, tune in tonight at 8p.m on Saukya Sutra with Dr.Vishawanath, consultant Nephrologist on 101.3 F.M.Rainbow.

You can listen in to Dr. Ballal on this link.
