The Transplant

The Call

Available for over a year

Dominic Arkwright talks to people who have taken or made life-changing phone calls. Tony Roth suffered his first heart attack when he was in his early 30s. Within six months he had a triple bypass operation, but two more heart attacks and more bypass surgery followed. In failing heath, he was forced to give up work, and waited for the call to tell him that a donor heart was available.
