    Liang Yaoyi from Shenzen China, is an excellent example of a little boy who cared more about others than he did of himself. Nice to see in a generation of me, me and more me. State of the Art 3D Printers will enable all organs to be successfully reproduced and people in need will not have to wait for selfless and caring individuals like Liang to donate organs. Unfortunately, the need far outweighs the supply.
