Corey “Keola” Carpio, 18, of Wailuku, a 1994 heart transplant recipient, died Tuesday in St. Francis Hospital.

His original heart was weakened by a virus he contracted in April 1991. Although it was originally thought his condition was terminal in 1991, he made a comeback, and parents and friends held fund-raisers to help defray the cost of treatment.

After a long wait, he got a call June 6, 1994, to go to San Francisco for the transplant. The heart donor was a 13-year-old boy who died after he suffered severe head injuries in a bicycle-car accident.

“Both my husband and I -- we just thank God for all these extra years we’ve had with Corey, because it gave us that much time to build up all these memories of him,” said Myrna Carpio, his mother.

At first after the transplant, he seemed to be doing well. But some time later he started showing signs of mild rejection, his mother said.

He was able to take part in moderate activity along the way, and the biopsies never showed rejection traits serious enough for him to be hospitalized, just different levels of mild rejection, she said. He went to St. Francis for a regular biopsy over the weekend and took a turn for the worse, his mother said.

Corey Carpio was born in Wailuku and is also survived by father Albert; brothers Clayton and Lance Tanaka and James Carpio; and sisters Sheryl Tanaka, April Motooka and Debra Domogma.
