He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to collect some more next year in Japan.“At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it’s expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”The biggest change for Winter, however, isn’t that he has bee a petitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates very little thing about his life now.“I have not time for arguments,” said Winter.“You change everything. Material things don’t mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”Also at yesterday’s news conference was Dr. Gary Levy, Winter’s doctor.Levy said he has bittersweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic exploits.Levy knows that for every recipient(接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren’t enough donated organs.“For every year, we have five to 10 people that will never be given the chance that Mr. Winter was given,” Levy said.Levy said greater public awareness and more resources are needed. He noted that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive $10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donors’ families.1.
