      I suppose it all depends on how they are connected together. I guess that if they care connected in series one after the other they might function. But, I suppose it all depends on the ability of your veins to hold to stronger blood flow. I guess with the proper draining mechanism for the extra blood it might work.

      Yeah I think so if they were set up correctly, i.e they pumped in a certain manner. I don’t thin naturally would work, i.e that we stuck a 2nd one in and saw what happened it would most certainly rely on human intervention and technology to make it work
