I think it’s wonderful to be able to be almost impulsively self-sacrificing (I’d probably think it was even more so if my one good kidney started to take a dive), but I also keep remembering the recent story about a donor who died giving a kidney to his brother (the brother lived, so I suppose it wasn’t all in vain). It’s not like giving blood, or skin cells, or even bone marrow (which I understand is very uncomfortable)– those things replenish themselves. I hope I’d be able to be that generous to a stranger, but I don’t know…it’s tragic that there are probably too many people like me, which is why there’s such a waiting list for donated organs. :-(
