A federal judge has ordered Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to allow Sarah Murnaghan, a 10-year-old in Pennsylvania dying of cystic fibrosis, to be moved to the adult lung transplant list. Normally the federal policy prevents children under age 12 from receiving donated adult lungs, but Sebelius has been under pressure to make an exception.
The parents of the girl asked the judge on Wednesday to order Sebelius to change organ donation rules so that the dying child has a better chance of receiving new lungs. They say she is running out of time.
