I hadn't really thought about it...soon they will just build us new bodies out of spare parts..kind of creepy. http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2007/01/15/uterus-transplant.html We don't need a womb to live, this is just for a woman who wants to have a baby...what are your thoughts?
don't much get how it's any creepier than say a heart transplant, or a lung transplant. But I imagine it'd be a very expensive surgery and probably considered an elective one since you can live without a womb. I wonder how frequent it actually will be once it's ok'ed by the medical industry.
Half nifty, half creepy. I could see for mothers who could carry children because of some disfunction & the mental trama that may go along with that; however, may some people go sour for a reason??? Like severe diabetic men who can't get it up because they're NOT SUPPOSED TO REPRODUCE, for example. The question really is whether or not this is nature say, "sorry, no babies for you"...
by that logic we shouldn't transplant hearts because those people were slated to die adn thusly not reproduce. Or any kind of life-saving surgery.
Not the point. You were using an argument that these people were not meant to reproduce, yes? People who's hearts are so bad that they will die without a transplant are, assumably, not meant to reproduce either by that line of logic. Like I said before, I rather imagine this will be considered to be an elective surgery, at least at first. If people can afford it, why the hell not? Ain't hurtin anybody, the donor's already dead and if they're an organ donor, they want their leftover pieces to do the best that they can.
I wouldn't trust it though. I think the only other country who tried this was Egypt and the woman died.
