When you are at the brink of death and you need to find ways to stay alive, would you go and do the most desperate things just to find the answer to your needs?
A South Arizonian woman did just that. She is in desperate need to get a 2nd chance at life by finding the right kidney for her transplant but there was no luck. She was not able to find a kidney that matches hers and so she went to find one through the online site that is popular for buying and selling goods, Craigslist.
Diane White, a 49 year old woman from Arizona, started searching for kidney donors in Craigslist and she was shocked with the number of ads posted there by kidney donors as well as hearts and liver donors.
But, Diane White has very few options and that is to either look for a kidney donor from her own family and hope that it will match hers or she should be on the national list for kidneys together with thousands and thousands of patients who are also waiting for their much awaited kidney. While waiting, she should have regular dialysis to cleanse away the harmful toxins that needs to be removed through a machine as the kidney can no longer do the job.
Although Craigslist has ads for donors, it is still illegal to purchase body organs in the country.
