Blood and nutrients flow. The heart beats without a break. Its strength and resilience is second to none. The host is able to lead a healthy and active lifestyle.
The same heart transplants into another body similar in size and make-up. The more it tries to pump, the smaller the arteries become. Blood doesn’t flow. Electrical signals cut in and out. Valves malfunction.
But the heart must do what it was designed to do! It continues to beat against the host’s will.
Organ failure. Organ rejection.
Am I the wasted heart?
