My ex wife donated one to someone she met online. The operation took place in the U.S. That was in 2007. She was never well again afterwards. She died last year in April.
On the other hand, my father passed away in 1985 and we donated both of his kidneys. Due to the anonymity of it all back then, we have no idea who recieved them and if the operations were successful, however I would like to think that someone, somewhere is living a healthy life because of him.
It's a serious decision and not one to be taken lightly. It will affect your life for better or for worse and you won't know that until afterwards. There is no going back.
