organ donor. july of last year, 62-year-old shaw received the heart transplant. just months after being told he might not even make it to the parking lot of his doctor's office alive. within two weeks of the transplant shaw was back to riding his bicycle. he has a lot to be thankful for especially to the family who he first met yesterday. >> i think we all teared up a bit. and, you know, i just kept thinking, as did larry, the lung recipient, this is so bizarre, it's so much harder on them than it is for us. and, you know, this just brings all the grief back. you know, it's been nine months since they lost their son. >> shaw said it was a difficult meeting and understands he's a reminder to the family of their loss, but he also says he is extremely grateful to have met them and will

beyond the inconvenience, there's new evidence the graveyard shift can make you sick. nbc's chief science correspondent robert bazell explains. >> reporter: just when most americans are getting their normal sleep, 21 million others are working nights. >> i average maybe four hours a day and even on my nights off i average maybe 3 1/2, 4 hours of sleep. so i'm always tired. >> reporter: as she works at the women's hospital in boston, where new research provides further evidence how harmful shift work can be. scientists put 21 healthy volunteers in the sleep lab for three weeks. by changing lights irregularly and taking away clocks and other clues about time, they altered the subjects' normal body clocks. within just a few days when the volunteers ate, their bodies responded differently to the food with dangerous effects. >> glucose levels went higher and stayed that way for several hours. this was because of decreased insulin release from the pancreas. together these reflect an increased risk of diabetes. >> reporter: several studies have shown shift workers are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease and other problems. this study is one of the first to show exactly how the body is harmed. the diabetes risk was so great that three of the healthy subjects in the study became prediabetic during the experiment. the researchers advise when possible, shift workers try to eat when their body clocks are not out of whack. for she and her co-workers, they know how difficult that can be. >> busy, so we don't go on regular meal breaks. >> when you're at work you kind of snack when you get a free minute. >> reporter: robert bazell, nbc news, new york. s all right. in case you didn't notice, there are an extra two days to file your taxes this year. thanks
