I don't know how is it other countries, but here in czech republic is everyone donor unless you specifically say you don't want to donate your organs when you die for some reason. This means that a chance of finding a donor in time is much higher. Average waiting time for liver transplant is something between 3 to 6 months, but it can be much faster if lucky. My partner was on waiting list for 4 weeks, before he got lucky ..

Can you turn up the music? I can't hear it.

Great chief of police that canada ever had - good man throughout his carrer.

I have side branch LPMN and a cyst in the main duct in the pancreas. Not sure why I’m diagnosed with PBC now. How are they related?

This video is amazing. I have big concerns with how I can communicate all of this to my partner and so it's comforting to hear that others can and have faced the same problem before. I would love to see a video from the perspective of a donor's partner. Something for my partner to see to reassure her would go a long way.

I can't believe there is only one comment here. This is all very informative and candid. What a great guy!

Such a beautiful love story. 😍

How much the cost of that live for donation

So generous to give the gift of life! ❤ I currently have a family member waiting for a kidney.

This is really spectacular. You are an angel

my sister also had a kidney transplant do you know that or

How many people have a history of liver failure/injury with oseltamivir (Tamiflu)? Especially since it doesn't seem to cause jaundice? I don't believe it as as "rare" as is reported on the Livertox website. There seems to be a collective aversion within the medical community to attribute liver injury to this nearaminidase inhibitor, which needs to be reevaluated. There have been cases of acute DILI liver failure up to around a month of a typical 5-day treatment for flu. The long-term effects of thus antiviral drug administration would be a great topic for discussion, as there is little to no information available to the public about the long-term effects of DILI. I think we will have to see many, many more of these before the resistance to liver injury from specifically Tamiflu is recognized. The studies with rat's and Tamiflu are pretty clear, however. Liver and kidney damage from Tamiflu has been well documented, yet sadly, actively ignored in the medical community. This needs to change. Even Google, on a cursory search, will tell you that "no liver injury has occurred from tamiflu." And "Experts says the benefits of Tamiflu outweighs the risks," yet fails to tell us what "experts." The nausea and vomiting caused byTamiflu, as well as some psychosis, must not be ignored symptoms, not even weeks after treatment with Tamiflu. Every healthcare provider needs to become familiar with the toxicity of Tamiflu, and must not simply give it out like candy to seniors, especially not to those in care homes. Here's a good place to start. The black box warnings need to include liver & kidney toxicity warnings. Please read this & there are many more... www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8787452/

I live in California, i don't know if every state has this, but in this state, every employer requires to pay 30 days full pay to organ donors. Im going to give a kidney to my husband.

I don't get it. "I choose life" - I suppose that means "I choose to go ahead and get a liver transplant". I can't imagine there are people needing a liver transplant and choosing not to get one.

this talk as so many strongly downplays the risks. The donors remaining kidney is being pressurized by the entire blood flow which once passed 2 kidneys. Therefore it gets bloated, podocytes wear and the slit membranes open wider and let more urine but also proteine pass. That is the "increase" in function, which is more of an exaggerated work mode which results in accelerated wear. Once the donor falls sick with almost any kind of desease e.g. Cancer, Alzheimers or Parkinson's, the medical treatment often is toxic to the kidneys. Now the donor has less renal mass to loose and the toxic agent flows through one kidney only, i.e. at twice the concentration, which will quickly raise the question if the desease or the treatment is more detrimental to the patient. Living donations have the advantage, that doctors can plan and prepare for the transplantation and that enables the transplantation of non compatible organs as there is time to suppress the recipients immune system with B-cell depleting medicine (Rituximab) and remove antibodies by plasmapheresis. While this may succeed, there is significant risk early in the procedure, where the recipient may loose the organ or even their life.

Very informative, thank you! I was diagnosed in 2020..

IS ANYONE TAKING URSIDOL AND NOTICE ANY WEIGHT GAIN 😮😮😮

What contraceptions did you use the first year of your kidney transplant? I don’t like the idea of an iud with progesterone, but I’ve been told it’s very little progesterone even less than the pill…

I am currently looking for a kidney for my sister. She is 42 living in San Antonio and if there is anyone willing to see if they can be tested please respond to this message I can't stand to see my sister going through such horrible conditions due to this disease God bless anyone willing to try donation

My husband just got put on the transplant list and his doctor said they couldn’t do partial liver transplants 😢. I’m in America.

i donated a kidney to my brother 42 years ago we are both in very good health my kidney and the donated kidney are working well

Saw her in "The Final Cut" last week. First time I ever saw her, and I cannot stop thinking about her. Beautiful.

These short stories are really annoying . I am sure we would all like to hear more from you. Many of us are going through the same things! Cheers!!!

Hi

Hi i want to sell my kidney please help anyone i have problems

Thank you so much for your great work

Im a 68 year old Aussie living in the USoNA, just started this process for my neighbours daughter who needs a kidney.Frustrating at times, i just want to help and get on with this, but they have so much pre screening to go through, gunna have to go give blood just to get my blood group, bloody medicare won't pay for it, says its elective! But for me, this is just the right thing to do, simple! I actually will be disappointed if not a suitable donor, even OK with the donor swapping, to me, if you can help then why the bloody hell wouldn't you? Pretty simple decision for me, my neighbours and i have had some very oprn and honest discussions, so no pressure, just scared of telling my whacko sister!!!😅

Everything otc meds or medication from doctors all have to pass through your liver. So it's best to not take any meds at all. If possible. I am not a doctor. I am speaking from being over-medicated. Big Pharma is the #1 killer with man made chems. A bug f U to big pharma.

I donate my liver

Absolutely Beautiful Story.

How many of the surgeons, doctors, social workers and nurses on the donation team have donated a kidney? It would be interesting to know if they are willing to donate.

im ready to donate my Ab+ organ

Hi Candice and Kate, thank you for your video. I had a transplant 3 years ago. And last year I decided to give pregnancy a go after everything had stabilized. I had a really smooth journey, no complications at all. A C section was scheduled at 38 weeks, but at 34 weeks plus 5 days my baby’s heart just stopped after I have just been told the previous day during a check up that my baby was healthy and big. It’s been a month since I gave birth to him and I’m still in shock and deeply devastated. My doctor mentioned that due to my transplant I’m at higher risk of stillbirth which leaves me with very little hope
