Would you donate a Kidney to someone you just met that really needed it? I met a fellow that called my office for an estimate. After spending less that an hour w/ this guy, seeing his kids, I am considering telling him I would be willing to be tested. Quoting: Justalittlebad Would you? Yes if I thought the person was a decent human being God Is! We're not! Let's knock off all the nonsense! |

Yes if I thought the person was a decent human being I have been dealing w/ the retail public since I was 16 years old. I am 52 now. The way his issue came up is in scheduling my appointment w/ around dialysis. You would have never known it looking at the guy. Talking w/ him was as if I had known him for years.

Would you donate a Kidney to someone you just met that really needed it? No I wouldn't. I have two children that rely on me, I wouldn't even consider risking my life for someone outside of my family, even then, if it were someone other than my children I'd be ambivalent. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it." Amen. |

Would you donate a Kidney to someone you just met that really needed it? No. Read up on women in India who gave up a kidney for money. Journalists revisited them 10 yrs later, and they were so much worse off. Didn't have the stamina nor the health they used to have, therefore could not work nearly as hard as they used to. Don't kid yourself. It's a major, major operation which may very possibly impact your health and life force in a substantial way. I believe in helping out our fellow man, but I draw the line at the intrusion into my body. |

You are one of the most reasonable, intelligent, interesting and downright honest people on GLP. Just had to say that! Your level of literacy is also a big plus. These things need to be acknowledged in a world of mediocrity and sanctioned stupidity :-) Cheers! |
