A girl I knew told me the kidney came from a friend of hers.


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

It surprised me when she told me.

This was in 1983,but the same privacy laws were in place.


I think the girl that told me's parents probably found out that my Dad got the call from his Transplant Doctor at UAB the day that girl died and donated her organs.

eta:My Mom made me swear that I would make sure they knew she wanted to be an Organ Donor even though she has the little heart on her DL.
