This is a tough question, xoB. My first inclination is to say yes. I would want to help someone. But how to hook up is a big question. I wouldn't just want to walk down the street with a sign, "Kidney, free, you haul". Plus, honestly, how does the expense get handled? That is a biggie.
I have gone through testing as a potential bone marrow donor for someone who was suffering from leukemia. Turned out I was not a compatible donor.
I don't know. I "say" yes, and still I sit on both of them. I guess my actions speak louder than my words. No. Or at least, not yet.
edit: fwiw, I have agreed to be an organ donor. hehe, I first wrote I am an organ donor...that's not quite right. Anyway. I figure I'm done with them, whatever "them" may be. I hope I can help many people, corneas, skin, heart, kidneys, whatever.
