{Louisville, Kentucky}...As part of a rare international kidney exchange, an Elizabethtown couple, JoAnn Breckenridge and her husband William, is participating in an organ swap program that will eventually benefit six people reaching halfway around the world to Greece. JoAnn Breckenridge received a new kidney from a stranger in April, and William donated one in May. The couple underwent surgeries at Jewish Hospital. Louisville surgeons Michael Marvin and Mary Eng were hailed by Greek Ambassador Vassilis Kaskarelis on Friday at the Greek Embassy in Washington, D.C., for the part they played in the donor exchange. The remaining transplants in the chain will take place soon in Atlanta and Denver.
