addendum
the more i think about it, the more disappointed and saddened i am that my blood type is B positive.
there are two people who i know are in need of a kidney and i really wanted to be able to offer one to them. but one is A positive and the other is A negative and short of removing a spleen (a surgery that is still experimental), i'm incompatible.
i am aware of how ridiculous this sounds.
my kidney is sad.
but! blood bank of alaska was in need of B positive blood, so at least i fulfilled a need somewhere.

That's pretty awesome that you did that and that would be willing to give up a kidney for those people you know. I wonder if I could be that selfless. :)
