My answer depends on whether he received a hooker and a nice hotel room with lots of ice. |

Is it really a donation when you have to pay them to receive it?

As someone in need of a kidney, that guy really is a hero.
If I could, I would. Maybe not without knowing what I know now, four years into dialysis. Donating a kidney shouldn’t be any more eventful than a few days in the hospital and a couple weeks of R&R. No new meds, no changes in lifestyle. For the person receiving it, it not only is a literal life saver, it gives them back their life. Being tethered to a machine is no way to live. I know. |

My girlfriend donated one to her father. Quite the ordeal.

![]() I know this may be a stupid question but have you look at international options? Is it viable or allowed?

I offered a kidney to a friend a couple of years ago who had kidney cancer. He's a good sonnabitch of a human. He ended up being good with one of his own but I'd have done it for sure.

Won't be long before a kidney can be grown in the lab and then transplanted.

Alport Syndrome is a hereditary disease in my family from my mothers side. Its a kidney killer that is an X chromosome defect.
My grandfather, his brother, my mom, and 2 of my aunts have died form kidney disease and several cousins have had kidney transplants because of it. Dude is a straight up hero. |

I might be willing to let go of a slightly used testicle. Pretty sure I’m not going to release a kidney.
