I love all things Rome and always have. I write on the early Roman Republic. My next novel tells the story of the great code of Roman Law--The Twelve Tables.

@nkf How fitting that it was at this same hospital, 70 years before, that the first human-to-human kidney transplant was performed. And now this. Remarkable.

@eric_weinhandl I was a medical student at the U of M and did a medical clerkship at Hennepin County Med Center when Fred Shapiro was 46 years old and a newly minted nephrologist named Allan Collins came on service as my attending. Fred was everywhere! Needless to say, I became a nephrologist!
