Adapting tubes and bags for bodies
Using cadaver and other materials, encouraging his own stem cells with biochemicals, patient receives a new windpipe … one that his body accepts as his own.
This kind of transplant is possible because science is offering one’s own body its own source, its own building blocks, to forward its innate drive to heal itself and maximize function.
While the minute functions of the replaced organ are likely either missing or perhaps at best wish newly-born, the singular function of holding and/or passage is met. If a body is healthy enough to accommodate the minute functions elsewhere, and the new constructed organ is faithful in its work, a patient’s life is enhanced.
Other organs likely in reach for this kind of intervention are those that supply seemingly non-complex holding and/or passage functions.
A caution to the public: do not seek to ignore greater functions in order to grab the next coolest invention. Our bodies are a magnificent and complex orchestration. To live well, we must honor that complexity faithfully.
