Rabbi Glatt makes a few historical, geographical, medical and moral mistakes: 

1. The first kidney transplant took place in Boston, not in NY.

2. The first heart recipient Washkansky died of an infection, not from an immunological rejection of the heart.

3. The first heart transplant took place in Capetown, not Johannesburg.

4. The donor was a white woman (Denise Darvall) not a black man.

5. The donor was NOT breathing on her own.
6. There are many prominent rabbis who find it morally and halachicaly questionable for a person who rejects brain death as death to be willing to take organs from a brain dead heart beating donor. This is akin to asking a doctor to murder someone for your benefit.
