Do you think it's possible for transplant recipients to take on personality traits of the person that donated their organ?

No scientific evidence exists to explain how characteristics of an organ donor might live on in the person who gets their organ. But theories and speculation abound, from the transforming power of beating a death sentence to the notion that the body's cells store memory. Some blame the toxic effects of potent transplant drugs and heavy anesthesia, while others cite the psychological trauma of knowing someone had to die to save a life. But even the self-described skeptics admit there may be more to this than imagination, though they insist it happens to a minority of patients.
