The pandemic disrupted organ transplants. But these three siblings aren't giving up
CNN
Organ transplants from living donors in 2020 dropped to numbers not seen in two decades. This has created challenges for one California family desperate for a new kidney.
At the same time, about 30 miles east, her brother Al Baccei was on a waiting list for a new kidney. The one Baldwin gave him over two decades ago started failing last year. To treat it the police sergeant, who lives in Danville, California, went on dialysis. And in nearby Brentwood, California, their sister Linda Tschaplizki was looking for a way to help her brother. While she was not a match for Baccei, she was willing to donate her kidney to someone else as part of a paired donation -- essentially swapping a kidney in exchange for a compatible one for her brother.
