Would you donate?
My great-uncle, a well-respected clergyman in Chicago, is surrounded by need of a kidney donation. He have had no luck finding a suitable, respectable live donor. He is a man of faith, moderation, and strength. I know it sounds crazy (and maybe this is a chance forum for presenting this issue)...but I most know: IS ANYBODY OUT THERE WILLING TO DONATE A KIDNEY?? The procedure is very straight forward next to little downtime for the donor. Information on the transplant surgery can be downloaded on nmh.org (That's the Northwesterm Memorial Hospital website). Please don't think I'm crazy. He's (my great-uncle) is one and only in his 50's. I merely want to see him live a healthy, run of the mill dialysis-free life. If nought else, please keep him contained by your prayers. Thank you.
Answers: That is so sad, I'm sorry to hear this. Unfortunately, you wont go and get a volunteer in a place resembling this, where diabetics are the switch members to the club. We necessitate both our kidneys for as long as we can possibly hang onto them!
He should be on the transplant detail at a local transplant center.
Best of luck! i don't know if it is legal to clear a plea like that on this forum.
