Transplants can save lives but every 11 minutes another name is added to the national organ transplant waiting list.

Recently former Vice President Dick Cheney made headlines after undergoing a heart transplant.

Cheney had been on the waiting list for 20 months.

Vice President Cheney will be a featured guest at the 2012 Oklahoma Heart Failure Symposium hosted by Integris Advanced Cardiac Care this Saturday.
