A. I hope this will help you:
To be included on the national waiting list, a patient must first find a transplant team that will treat him or her. The transplant team, a group of surgeons, nurses and other health professionals at a hospital, evaluates the patient to decide whether he or she is a good candidate for transplantation. In addition to assessing the patient's physical condition, the team will consider the patient's attitude, psychological state and history of drug abuse, among other factors. Donated organs are a rare and precious commodity, so doctors don't want to proceed unless they are confident that a patient is physically and mentally prepared for the procedure, as well as life after the procedure. For the most part, patients who are unwilling to give up unhealthy drugs, including cigarettes and alcohol in many situations, will be automatically disqualified.

If the transplant team feels that a patient is a good candidate for transplant, they will contact the UNOS Organ Center in Richmond, VA, in order to put the patient on the national waiting list. The Organ Center operators record all relevant information about the patient, including his or her physical condition, blood type, tissue type and age. This information is entered into the national database.

When an organ becomes available (when an organ donor is pronounced brain dead at a hospital, typically), the local organ procurement organization (OPO) will gather all relevant information about the donor and enter this data into a program maintained by the UNOS Organ Center. Based on the criteria established by the UNOS board of directors, the program generates a ranked list of potential recipients. The criteria involves several factors, including the physical compatibility between the donor and the recipient, the health of the recipient and how long the recipient has been waiting for an organ. The purpose of the criteria is to choose a recipient who is a good match and stands a good chance of recovery, while also taking into account who has been "in line" longer.

how can I restore my pictures I lost from a system recovery?
Q. I had a problem with my computer one day and my wife did a system recovery and when it was finished all of our pictures were gone along with our movies and videos. When I contacted our HP they told us they would give us another hard drive and in return we would send the old one. I'm fine with that but first I want all my family pics and movies back cause they are of our kids. I ran a search and they didn't show up and used some free programs to find everything but it didn't help. I live in Va if someone can help me or maybe just tell me another way to find my stuff I'd appreciate it!
The problem that I had had with the computer was I think I kept shutting it off the wrong way everytime it froze up by just pushing the power button thats what led to the system recovery because it didn't want to come back on after I did it

A. Sorry, they are gone.

You can take the hard drive to a shop and they may be able to do a forensic recovery, but the data will not be in the format it original was.

Not to be corny but "Don't put all your eggs in one basket". Always have a backup copy somewhere.
