what a Dick.
"When I came out from under the anesthetic after the transplant, I was euphoric," Cheney, who underwent the life-saving procedure last year, told Larry King in an interview slated to air Thursday on Ora TV. "Id been given the gift of additional lives, additional years of life. For the family of the donor, theyd just been [through] some terrible tragedy, theyd lost a family member."
Cheney, who was "near death" when he received a heart pump in 2011 that kept him alive until the transplant, said he does not know the identity of the donor or the circumstances surrounding his death.
"The way I think of it from a psychological standpoint is that its my new heart, not someone elses old heart," Cheney continued. "And I always thank the donor, generically thank donors, for the gift that Ive been given, but I dont spend time wondering who had it, what theyd done, what kind of person."
