Introduction Notes Introduction 1. Telephone interview with Danelle DiCiantis, conducted by Annie Evans, November 19, 2000; Laura Rothenberg, “My So-Called Lungs,” in Sayantani DasGupta and Marsha Hurst (eds.), Stories of Illness and Healing; Women Write Their Bodies (Kent, OH: Kent State University Press, 2007), 44.

For a critique of the assumptions and practices of modern medicine, see John D. Engel et al., Narrative in Health Care; Healing Patients, Practitioners, Profession, and Community (Oxford and New York: Radcliffe Publishing, 2008), 25–31; and Arthur W. Frank, The Wounded Storyteller: Body, Illness, and Ethics (University of Chicago Press, 1995), 54–56, 81–85, and 172. 3. These cost estimates were for first-year billed charges for a transplant; costs for immunosuppression drugs and other treatment continued well beyond the first year.

Engel et al., Narrative in Health Care , 1, 6–7, 43, 219–229; Rita Charon, Narrative Medicine; Honoring the Stories of Illness (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2006), vii, 192. Arthur Frank sees listening to stories of illness and responding to them with empathy as an important moral act. Listening communicates that a speaker has value. See Frank, Wounded Storyteller , 25, 53–54; and David B. Morris, Illness and Culture in the Postmodern Age (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1998), 257–263. 7.

Longmore and Lauri Umansky, “Disability History: From the Margins to the Mainstream,” in Longmore and Umansky (eds.), The New Disability History; American Perspectives (New York: New York University Press, 2001), 6–7. 8. Some writers have contrasted “disease,” by which they mean disordered biological processes, from “illness,” which is more about a person’s experience of suffering. See Valerie Raoul et al., Unfitting Stories: Narrative Approaches to Disease, Disability, and Trauma (Waterloo, Ontario: Wilfrid Laurier University Press, 2007), 5; Engel et al., Narrative in Health Care , 29. Judy Segal notes that pain may be a medical mat- ter, but suffering is a personal and social one. Judy Z. Segal, “Interdisciplinary and Postdisciplinarity in Health Research in Canada,” in Unfitting Stories , 12. 9. Transcribing always requires editorial decisions about how to punctuate and deal with pauses, repeated phrases, and incomplete phrases/sentences. It is probably fair to characterize our practice as “light editing,” which can include deletion of false starts, constantly repeated phrases such as “you know,” or fillers such as “like” or “um.” 10. Arthur Frank has described the challenge in interpreting others’ stories as “to avoid reducing any one voice to its terms of connection with others. In the ideal commen- tary, individual stories are empowered by their association with other narratives, but they are not subsumed within that association.” The format of this book makes it difficult to show the full detail of each individual narrative; still, I hope to approach Frank’s ideal of enlarging, or giving each story greater scope by connecting it to other stories. Arthur Frank, “The Negative Privilege of Women’s Illness Narratives,” in DasGupta and Hurst, Stories of Illness and Healing , 67. 11. We would probably ask more questions about community, identity, feelings about donors, makeup of the waiting list, sexuality, gender, and finances. I would also be more careful to train students to be aware of the possibility of subtly pushing interviewees into the more socially acceptable “traditional narratives” of restitution, which celebrate a comfortable message of the “resiliency of the human spirit.” See Lawrence Langer, Holocaust Testimonies: The Ruins of Memory (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1991), 58–64; and Frank, Wounded Storyteller, 105–109. 12. Book-length autobiographies include Isabel Stenzel Byrnes and Anabel Stenzel, The Power of Two; A Twin Triumph over Cystic Fibrosis (Columbia and London: University of Missouri Press, 2007); Shirley E. Jewett, I Call My New Lung Tina; Inspiration from a Transplant Survivor , 2nd ed. (Victoria, British Columbia: Water Signs Publishing/Trafford Publishing, 2002); Laura J.

Lessons and Ponderings Along the Road to Acceptance (New York: iUniverse, 2007). For a collection of many short personal accounts of transplant, see Joanne M. Schum, compiler, Taking Flight; Inspirational Stories of Lung Transplantation (Victoria, British Columbia: Trafford Publishing, 2002). 13. In A Shared Authority: Essays on the Craft and Meaning of Oral and Public History (Albany: State University of New York Press, 1990), Michael Frisch described how Notes / 215 the interviewer and interviewee/narrator are both shapers of an interview who share “author-ity” over it. This influential concept expanded into an ideal for the demo- cratic practice of oral history in which collaboration between the scholar/interviewer and narrators is extended beyond the interview to the ways the interviews are used. Cognizant of some extraordinary examples of oral historians who approach this ideal in their projects (such as Alicia Rouverol, Wendy Rickard, Daniel Kerr, and Lorraine Sitza who described them in a 2003 volume of The Oral History Review ), I must take responsibility for the fact that after the initial stages of interviewing, sharing transcripts with narrators, and depositing them in the archives, I undertook the process of analyzing the interviews and publishing my analysis of them without such collaboration and have, in a sense, “gotten the last word.” See all the essays, including those by Linda Shopes and Michael Frisch on “Sharing Authority,” The Oral History Review 30, no.1 (2003): 103–113. All narrators make decisions about what to reveal and not reveal, but writing a book using quotations involves a great deal of selection of the words of others. 14. Susan Lederer demonstrated that there is an early twentieth-century “prehistory” to organ transplantation, which people commonly think of as starting in the 1960s in the United States. It included the transfer of skin, testis, glands, bone, and blood and societal grappling with supply problems, the meaning of donation and commodifi- cation, and incorporation of a “foreign” body part into a new one. Susan E. Lederer, Flesh and Blood; Organ Transplantation and Blood Transfusion in Twentieth-Century America (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2008). A fine treatment of early heart transplantation is seen in Donald McRae, Every Second Counts; The Race to Transplant the Human Heart (G. P. Putnam’s Sons, 2006). Steven J. Peitzman has written a his- tory of kidney disease that includes transplantation, Dropsy, Dialysis, Transplant: A Short History of Failing Kidneys (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins, 2007). The notes to chapter two include medical journal articles that summarize key moments in the history of lung transplantation, and important books by scholars from many fields other than history on the social, political, ethical aspects of organ transfer and dona- tion. Keith Wailoo, Julie Livingston, and Peter Guarnaccia, A Death Retold: Jesica Santillan, The Bungled Transplant, and Paradoxes of Medical Citizenship (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2006) is an interdisciplinary collection of essays on the implications of Santillan’s failed heart-lung transplant. 1 End-stage Lung Disease 1. Interview with Jan Travioli, conducted by Erin Witmer, Waxhaw, NC, November 2, 2000. 2. Case history included in Martin Bodian, Fibrocystic Disease of the Pancreas (New York: Grune and Stratton, 1953), 167. 3. Various researchers around the world were observing the symptoms of the disease, so it is difficult to know who to credit for its “discovery.” Charles May calls the phenomenon “a revealing example of the gradual accumulation of observations from a variety of independent sources which may be required to attain a clear conception of a disease.” Charles D.

Such potential inconsistencies may affect the patients who are awaiting MOT as well as those who are awaiting single organ transplantation (SOT) because both groups depend upon available organs from the same limited donor pool. Prioritization of MOT candidates and the allocation rules for each combination have not been standardized across the different organs. As a result, the current allocation system has generated confusion in the transplant community about the rationale for differences in MOT allocation plans between different organ combinations.

  • Chicago Police and the Labor and Urban Crises of the Late Twentieth Century
    The Patrolmen’s Revolt: Chicago Police and the Labor and Urban Crises of the Late Twentieth Century By Megan Marie Adams A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Robin Einhorn, Chair Professor Richard Candida-Smith Professor Kim Voss Fall 2012 1 Abstract The Patrolmen’s Revolt: Chicago Police and the Labor and Urban Crises of the Late Twentieth Century by Megan Marie Adams Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Robin Einhorn, Chair My dissertation uncovers a history of labor insurgency and civil rights activism organized by the lowest-ranking members of the Chicago police. From 1950 to 1984, dissenting police throughout the city reinvented themselves as protesters, workers, and politicians. Part of an emerging police labor movement, Chicago’s police embodied a larger story where, in an era of “law and order” politics, cities and police departments lost control of their police officers. My research shows how the collective action and political agendas of the Chicago police undermined the city’s Democratic machine and unionized an unlikely group of workers during labor’s steep decline. On the other hand, they both perpetuated and protested against racial inequalities in the city. To reconstruct the political realities and working lives of the Chicago police, the dissertation draws extensively from new and unprocessed archival sources, including aldermanic papers, records of the Afro-American Patrolman’s League, and previously unused collections documenting police rituals and subcultures.

Now 55 years since the first human lung transplant, this is a good time to reflect upon the history of lung transplantation, to recognize major milestones in the field, and to learn from others’ unsuccessful transplant experiences. James Hardy was instrumental in developing experimental thoracic transplantation, performing the first human lung transplant in 1963. George Magovern and Adolph Yates carried out the second human lung transplant a few days later.
