Have you ever read “My Sister’s Keeper” by Jodi Picoult? It has an interesting story about a girl being a live donor (of bone marrow, blood, and, ultimately they want her to donate a kidney) for her sister who is ill with a rare form of leukemia. Very interesting and heartbreaking novel.

I wouldn’t give a kidney away to a stranger because I would give it to a family member. What happens if I give it to Joe Blow and then my brother needed it six months later?

I tried so hard not to laugh at the beginning of this post in that same not funny ha ha way that you did. Thanks for the comment and I’ll definitely be back. I’m not sure about the whole donating an organ whilst I’m alive, but I think I’ve become used to the idea of giving them when I pass.

I think I would give up a kidney for someone. I have two…why not share? On the other hand, I have considered that whole…what if my other kidney fails scenario too. I dunno…I guess it depends on how generous and who’s asking. If it was one of my siblings…yeah. They all get a free kidney pass. Other folks would have to be a case by case basis.
