QUOTE (Phil rr @ Mar 14 2004, 21:55) wonder why ppl are waiting liver transplants...  mmmm dunno,   could be reasons like born with defects, failiar, medical conditions that lead to failier (not drug or alcohol related)     my daughter was only born with 1 kidney (which is full of cysts) so it doesnt have to come down to lifestyle.   im a donor, in fact i wasnt and was against it till my daughter was born and it was thought she'd need dialasys and kidney donation, friction was caused because her dads side of the family are jehovas witnesses they wanted to deprive her of life (which is what could of happened) just because they didnt beleive she should have blood. i went against there wishes, as any sane mother would do   that was the first time (and last time ) i used my faith and spoke to the chaplin of the hospital becuase i was classed as evil and grace was classed as unclean & impure, i (like happy) always thought that i would not be complete if my body was incomplete, he basically told me that your body and soul are 2 different machines and the body protects your soul until its time to die, when your buried, the body is closure but your soul will live on........ i will never forget that day, sad i know on the contary. i found it a very moving and perswasive story
