Hand-and-a-half sword, bastard sword, and longsword are all the same weapon.

They can be used properly with two hands, or slightly unwieldily with one hand.

Where are you located?

Son of a lung transplant patient here. Lung transplants are somewhat more finicky than other organs because unlike a kidney, for example, lungs have exposure to the outside world. Lung transplants prognosis is not fantastic, but it does have the capacity for greatly improving quality of life

Lung recipients have greater than 80% survival rate after one year, but for those who make it past the first year, they're largely out of the woods for the main complication, which is chronic primary alograft dysfunction.

In terms of organ function, a prospective lung transplant recipient will already have been receiving large quantities of supplemental oxygen, so any improvement post-surgery is a welcome relief. With proper physical therapy, and precluding any major complications, a lung transplant patient can be back to "normal" function in about a year.

In terms of the transplants organ's longevity, you can expect to see degradation after about 5 years, and potentially as many as 10 years, however 3-year survival, given the potential for complications is somewhere around 60%.

It's important for the transplant recipient and family to be 100% clear that the transplant is not a cure -- it's about improving quality of life.

Where did you go after you went off-stage? Was there any follow-up from the band afterwards?
