It is interesting to me to see that there are others out there like me - even the rich and famous. What is puzzling to me, though, is that we (the 'commoners') don't hear more about it. I would think it would be prime opportunity to support organ donation. But I have heard of rumours that somehow, people with $$$$ don't have to wait as long. So why would they see the need? If that's true....

A true story from a living organ donor
Project MUSE - Living Organ Donation
Wow this is a must-read. I have never talked to or read anything from any other organ donor. The only one I know is my Dad and he doesn't talk about it.
It's enlightening. And there are so many more after this that I haven't even skimmed through yet... I am sure they are not all positive. But this one does touch on the many of the arguments that I have heard, and even talks about people in the family of the one needing a transplant not being willing to even get tested...
