[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Part of what I don't understand here - we're supposed to mock Dawn for donating a kidney then talking about it?!

The kidney donors I know talk about it both because they are proud and also to try to raise awareness and encourage others to do it. Was she supposed to donate the kidney and then... not talk about it?

I've seen so many cruel tweets and comments about this suggesting that somehow her kidney donation - a selfless thing to do - was BAD, and I am just struck by this insane up is down judgment.[/quote]

She was supposed to do it in a twitter mob approved way, right hashtags and all.  Otherwise she might make someone uncomfortable.[/quote]

It's one thing to donate a kidney and talk about it and raise awareness. It is quite another thing to add people to your FB group, then email them because they hadn't commented. And it is not ok to go to a conference and say. "No one asked about my missing kidney!"

That said, Larson is also terrible. As are her writer friends. [/quote]

But really, if you donated a kidney you wouldn't expect people to ask you about it? I definitely would! And I am not some entitled "look at me" sort of person. Especially if I thought they were friends.
