As someone who will need a heart transplant, holy fucking shit fuck yes, please let this be more than just a cool story and help me live too.

As an American, I already know the cost of this procedure is going to be in the millions. Insurance companies will moan and cry about experimental treatments not covered for at least a decade.

Only the rich and powerful will be paying out of pocket to extend their lives with genetically modified pig hearts.
