I don't think they've seen someone,maybe a family member's life extended and the quality of their life made better.
My Dad was a Type 2 Diabetic and his kidneys failed.He was on Dialysis for 6-8 months.I matched on 3 out of 4 to see if I was a match.
A perfect match came available.It improved the last 6 years of his life so much.
A girl I knew told me the kidney came from a friend of hers.An 18 year old girl traveling to Tuscaloosa to school.Died in a car wreck.

I wonder how she knew that. Donor identity is a very sensitive issue.
