Terrible news for anyone, but for such a great gymnast that's a lot of broken dreams.

Sounds like Lupus to me. Maybe they can get her on some good meds to suppress her immune system. Hope she can defend in Paris

Can she get a transplant? She is young and deserves it.

I have been on dialysis for over 4 years and have no interest in a transplant.

I would always wonder who I was taking one from.

Pretty sure he’s referring to other recipients, not donors

Yes, but they can also come from a compatible donor since we have two.

A few years ago I was in a long distance relationship, vists back and forth with a Filipina. When I went to the Philippines, my best friend Aussie John always warned me to take care of my kidneys. Urban legends / IRL stories, movies, etc.

Yes, we have 2, but one can be sold on the black market for about 30,000$ from what I have heard. So, if traveling to some places in Mexico (went 2x in high school) other countries where you might find yourself drugged on a beach and waking up (hopefully) in a bathtub full of ice water, watch out and take care. shite happens, IRL.
