    Thanks Dr. Ratner for this great video!
    I donated a kidney to a stranger in September 2005. Since my kidney donation, I have been wanting to do more - so I now have a project to help others who need a kidney. I don't get paid for this and don't charge a fee. My brother donated a kidney as well, to someone on my list of people who need a kidney.
    If anyone out there would like more information on kidney donation, please feel free to contact me.

    Someone contacted me that he wants to donate a kidney after seeing a posting I had for someone in need of a kidney. In that posting I had provided the link to Dr. Ratner's video on kidney donation.. I had asked him how his wife felt about his donating a kidney. He said in the past she said no. However, he got his wife to watch this video that I had in my posting, and as a result his wife is allowing her husband to donate a kidney! Dr. Ratner's video here will result in more lives being saved!

    I am in touch with many people who have donated a kidney - all of us who donated a kidney are doing great, thank G-d, no one has regrets, and some of us wish we can do it again!
