[quote=Anonymous]In order to donate a kidney, you must go through extensive medical and psychological review. In other words, a social worker will explain the emotional aspects of donation for YOU and will assess whether this is a good thing for YOU to do. You also need to be a really close match medically, which is more rare than frequent, with siblings and other relatives. Your kidney needs to match with hers on several markets, not just a couple. If you get going down this road, and decide NOT to donate during the testing phase, after you gather information, your sister will be told you are not a match. Case closed. Do not agonize over this at this stage because it is entirely possible you are not a match for donation anyway. --- signed, Someone who is from a family with two kidney recipients [/quote]
