Not a real glamorous organ, admittedly. I mean the heart is a romantic symbol, the brain a intellectual symbol, but the kidney? Seriously, how often does one think about their kidneys unless they have an infection?
My friend Mary thought about hers all the time. She was on dialysis for over two years and had to watch everything she ate or drank. It is terrible when your body fails you. But yesterday, Mary got a new kidney.
Donated from a live anonymous person, how cool is that?! Some stranger gave away a body part out of kindness. It blows my mind. But how fantastic that there are people out there that are that kind.
