First, deoxygenated blood enters the right side of the heart and is pumped to the lungs to absorb oxygen.
A person cannot live without a healthy liver, because of the contributions of the organ to digestion and to cleansing the blood. But an adult with a failed liver can survive â¦ (under extensive medical care) for a day or two, possibly as long as 3 days, before a transplant becomes necessary. person cannot live without a healthy liver, because of the contributions of the organ to digestion and to cleansing the blood.

At about the third year following transplant, damage to the graft (transplanted kidney) can be seen, caused by the immunosuppressant drugs. Over 85 percent of transplant patients take tacrolimus (prograf), a calcineurin inhibitor, a drug extremely effective in preventing rejection but harsh on the graft.osted on April 3, 2012 by Vicki.
