´óÏó´«Ã½

Love on the Transplant List on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Three followed cystic fibrosis patient Kirstie as she waited for a life saving lung transplant while trying to plan her wedding.

The film showed Kirstie being rushed to hospital three days before the ceremony then making it down the aisle through sheer willpower and determination.

It followed her extraordinary experience of living on the transplant list, the fear and uncertainty, the realities of constant pain, taking medication and relying on oxygen machines to breathe.
