Algerian Aicha, 62, who has had a kidney transplanted from her son (R) leave Batna's university hospital's nephrology department, 435 kms east of Algiers, after an appointment on July 26, 2017.
In Algeria and across the entire Maghreb in North Africa, many people continue to suffer or die because of the lack of donors.
Part of the problem lies with laws restricting the harvesting of human organs, coupled with cultural or religious reticence, despite Muslim theologians' approval of organ donations.
