someone i know needs a kidney. we both don't have close family around so we have tried to stay in touch. i have even stayed overnight to help her when she had surgery for her condition and i call her every week to make sure she is okay. if she does get called for a transplant, i will be her primary caregiver until her family can fly in. however, i have not offered to be tested to see if i am a match because sometimes she has not been very nice. she scolds and can be rude at times. she is like that to everyone so it is nothing personal but it doesn't endear me to her. i have another friend whom i love dearly and i would give her a kidney if she needed one. i feel bad i have not been tested. i have gone through the scenario of if that person dies. i know i would feel bad i did not get tested for her.
