C. woman says she cant access the lifesaving transplant she needs because she cant prove she has enough money in her bank account, and cannot afford to uproot her life to Vancouver for postoperative care. I dont have enough money to save my life. In B. C., in Canada, Christina DerksenUnrau said. The Princeton, B. C., resident suffers from asthma, emphysema and lung cancer, and a lung transplant is her last option to survive.
