When my younger sister Clara needed a kidney transplant, I gave her mine.
I did not hesitate. I did not make a spreadsheet. I did not ask for time.
When they told us I was a match, I said yes before they finished the sentence.
Clara stared at me from her hospital bed and said, “You’d really do that?”
I remember looking at him and thinking, I picked the right man.
“Of course I would,” I said.
She started crying. “I don’t even know what to say.”
