in this forum and I think it's a likely explanation for his desire to stretch things out.
I just sometimes wonder how he has managed to pull it off this long. The reports state Cheney was on the transplant list for twenty months, which would seem to preclude 'stealing' or buying the heart he received. The NPR story I heard also acknowledged that it's somewhat unusual for a 71 year old to get this sort of transplant, but some heart transplant centers do allow men at his age to get the surgery, the hospital he was at in Virginia being one of them. So there may have been nothing spiritual or paranormal about this development.
