13.A sense of humor is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo,64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2012.On Christmas Eve,2002,Anthony had a heart transplant (移植) from a 21-year-old donor (捐赠者).Two days before Valentine's Day in 2012,Afred received a 19-year-old heart,marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants."I'm 15minutes older than him.But now I'm younger because of my heart and I'm not going to respect him,"Afred said with a smile,pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters,who laughed frequently at their jokes.
While the twins knew that genetics (遗传学) might have played a role in their condition,they recognized that their bad eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems."We'd put half a pound of butter on a steak.I overdid it on all the food that tasted good,so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly."
The discussion moved to Anthony's recovery.In the five years since his heart transplant,he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles,swam each day,and walked a couple of miles.He was still on medication (药物治疗) but not nearly as much as Alfred,who was just in the early stage of his recovery.
