Was watching the local news tonight. They had a story I tried to find a link to the video but couldnt so I will just have to tell it.
A woman decided two years ago that she should give a kidney to someone but didnt know anybody that needed one (she didnt even know anyone that had EVER had kidney problems). She kept feeling strongly about this but didnt know what to do. Earlier this year, she interviewed a woman to work in her real estate company. She asked if the woman would be available on weekends (kinda important in the real estate industry) but the woman said no because she had to look after her sick husband. "What's wrong if you dont mind my asking?" She learned that the woman's husband had a heriditary kidney disease and needed a transplant. The woman met the man pretty soon and underwent the tests and found out she was a perfect match and 2 months ago the transplant occured. They both are doing well. The donor is even giving 10% of her commissions (I didnt hear for how long) to kidney disease research.
I am glad to know that there are people like this woman and people like my potential donors.
Editor's note... Just found the link here to the video of the story if you are interested
