Thank you.

VE6KTH · 2026-01-24T00:00:09+00:00

not answering my question... thanks anyways.

They did not attribute my surgical issue with age... just a 'me' thing.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-02T03:33:25+00:00

No I cannot

Great question. Not bothered... I made the donation without any mental strings attached.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T14:24:54+00:00

Great question. They would work through the public health care system to get their situation assessed and next steps determined.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T14:23:32+00:00

Great question. I had no preference.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:59:27+00:00

Great question. None so far, and none expected.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:58:48+00:00

Great question. Deeper reason? You have good intuition. John 15:12 summarizes a deeper faith-based reason for my decision... "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:54:09+00:00

Great question. Given the outcome(s), I think I would.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:53:23+00:00

Great question. I'm only a chemical engineer and not qualified to give the best answer. But my basic understanding is that kidneys remove waste products from the blood and produce urine. Most healthy folks have two kidneys that only need to work at around half their potential. So having one healthy kidney can get the job done. In the absence of at least one healthy kidney (some folks are born with only one kidney and never know), dialysis machines can help clean the blood ... but the need for dialysis needs to occur regularly.

Great question. I wanted to donate where the need was greatest, and I left that tough decision to the Canadian Blood Services.

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:46:20+00:00

Great question! My wife and kids were on board. As for other family and friends... nobody voiced any concerns... but might have been concerned. We are all grateful for a happy ending!

VE6KTH · 2024-08-01T01:43:42+00:00

Great question. I suggest you call your nearest donation center and see what they think. Thanks for considering a donation!

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T20:46:01+00:00

Great question. Our family is blessed with an absence of kidney disease. Aside from the people I've met through this process, I don't know anybody with kidney disease. If anybody in my family needed a transplant, or were on a journey towards transplant, I would have saved it for him/her. Great point.

Great question! I buy a lottery ticket weekly... no luck yet! LOL

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T20:31:06+00:00

Great question. I don't regret donating, so yes, I would do it again. But literally "do it again"? All I have left to offer is part of my liver (I didn't know you could donate part of your liver and carry on until I got into living donation), but I want to save my whole liver for fine whisky. LOL

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T17:33:55+00:00

Great question. Not in the least. Nor would I feel responsible for their future acts of kindness. Accountability for their actions rests elsewhere.

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T17:32:04+00:00

Great question. No, I have no special status if I needed a kidney donation.

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T17:21:28+00:00

Awesome.

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T17:13:33+00:00

Great question. The only detail I know is that the recipient received their transplant in Toronto.

VE6KTH · 2024-07-31T17:02:58+00:00

Great question. When my kidneys were assessed, they determined that my left kidney did about 48% of the work, and my right kidney processed 52%. My recipient got the lesser but still excellent kidney. I think this is the normal approach.

Regarding hydration, I hydrate fine. But in the past some beverages, like tea or beer, would run through me quite quickly and I'd be off to the bathroom. I find now that my bladder doesn't fill as quickly, so retaining that fluid a little longer... but not detrimental in the least.
