Who we are: handed down in a heart transplant?

« on: April 27, 2008, 06:24:26 AM »

Is everything that makes us who we are stored in our entire body, not just the brain?

read the article then scroll down and read Dr. Mercola's Comments:

This is something I've wondered about for a while, and alluded to in your other thread, regarding the brain (I think the brain?)

There's not enough citations in the doctors comments for me to really recommend that article as proof of anything, but it's certainly interesting thinking. My wife said she thought she'd heard something once about memory cells being found in the heart.

Also... while some of the stories there sound pretty "incredible", there's also the psychological realities of mimicry and obsession. The guy in the main article was clearly aware of the donor's family, and so likely the manner in which the donor died. That's enough for me to wonder if he wasn't destabilized by something in his life already, before or after, and he developed an obsession with the donor.
