Anyone have A spare kidney they dont need?

[sunroofsuperbird]

I am not sure If I have metioned this on here before but I have renal Kidney disease and finally got put on a waiting list. They say the wait is about 8 years without a doner. so I am tring any long shots I can think of. I have not been on here in awhile as you may have noticed. I never felt good enough to be out working on any of my cars. well I started dialysis last week and it makes me feel better now but takes most of my time still I work and then have to be on machine 9 hours a night. but maybe I can get something done now as I feel better. I will be at carslile just not sure in what yet.  probally the Challenger Wagon  or maybe just the 4x4 Charger. Anyway I know this is a long shot but who knows. If you have any Questions contact me. i don't know how I could repay you? but you would be more than welcome to drive any of my cars like you stole them If you wanted. [thats what they were made for] anyway keep me in mind and don't forget become a organ doner. Here is the contact info if interested. My Name is Marty Bollinger my id # is 1868053-3 my Coordinator is Ann Litts . Email is alitts@unch.unc.edu or phone # is 1-888-263-5293 if you have Diabetes or high Blood pressure you may be ruled out. Thanks All and see you in carslile.

Glad the treatment is making you feel better and I hope you don't have to wait too long.
I'm curious as to why the wait is 8 years?  It would seem that organ donors would outweigh people in need.  I'm ignorant obviously but it just seems like a very long time.  My mother is thinking of giving her older brother one, she is 68.

I think they should make people in jail give up stuff to help others(i'm talking hardened lifers here).  Now, that would be some real payback to society.
Good luck Sir.

I guess the wait is because NC is one of the highest % of kidneys needed and only 3 hospitals that do them. and of course my insurance co say I can only go to one and its the one with the 8 yr wait and its 4 hours away also everytime I have to go there. the closest hospital that does the is in charolte and the wait is about 2yrs and only 45 mins away but insurance says no pay there. I agree the the jailed pepole cut them up.
