APRIL 19 : I GAVE UP A KIDNEY FIVE YEARS AGO TODAY …and I don’t mind using all Capital Letters to say so .
I am a …..
LIVING ORGAN DONOR… SHAKING THE KIDNEY TREE ….
GIVE IT UP…..YOU, ONLY NEED ONE.
Dear friends ,
This holiday season , why not consider giving the gift of an internal organ.
My name is Vermin Supreme . I am a living kidney donor .
I am using my elevated moral position, as an organ donor, to make this urgent appeal .
Right now , some , 70,000 Americans are in need of a kidney .
My dear friend , Virgil Fowler , is one of these Americans .
Virgil is a simple family man . A man of simple tastes . He lives a simple lifestyle .
Through no fault of his own , he finds himself in end stage renal failure . Bummer , dude .
VERMIN SUPREME WANTS TO GUILT TRIP YOU .
When my friend Luke Clemente’s kidneys were failing, a few years back ,
I jokingly offered to trade one of my kidneys for one of his testicles .
Unfortunately for him , I had already committed to giving one of mine,
(kidney,not testicle ) , to my mother , who was also entering end stage kidney failure .
He died , but my mother lived .
I dedicated my kidney donation to him.
FACT : YOU HAVE ONE MORE KIDNEY THAN YOU REALLY NEED !
It costs nothing to screen to be a potential kidney( or marrow or liver) donor .
In fact, it’s a great way to get a free medical checkup !
( I got a free colonoscopy as part of my screening.)
It starts with a simple blood test . They put both your antibodies in a little test tube wrestling ring .
If the anti-bodies fight too much…maybe you’re not a good match.
But, if they don’t fight. BINGO. You could be a donor . It’s fast . It’s fun . It’s easy .
Of course , there is a long series of screening tests ,beyond that ,to assure compatibility .
Anywhere along the way , even if promising , you could be rejected, for any number of reasons .
FACT : A DONOR WILL REGAIN 90% OF THEIR ORIGINAL KIDNEY CAPACITY
…. ie you can still drink.
NO WORRIES : They will not take your organs from you unless you are extremely healthy.
They will only take the organs that you allow them .
They even write on your belly with a magic marker to make sure .
At any time during the process , you can opt out , and change your mind. No questions asked.
(The recipient will be told you were not an acceptable match.)
FACT : EVEN IF NOT COMPATIBLE WITH VIRGIL , YOU COULD STILL GIVE ONE UP AND SAVE A LIFE .
AND STILL BE DOING VIRGIL A SOLID. If you do donate to a needy stranger, on the list, whom you do match ,
through some complex set of calculations , Virgil , will be bumped up the list .
(or something like that, if my recall is correct .)
FACT : RECOVERY TIME WAS PRETTY DAMN QUICK. The operation is laprascopic .
A couple day post-op stay in the hospital.
After two weeks , I was back on the playground, wrangling rugrats .
At three weeks, I was riding a Stegosaurus ,at the grand opening of the Creation Museum.
After six weeks , I was back carrying and climbing 24 foot ladders . (will work for food)
Of course, I don’t want to minimize the first week and a half of ‘hard’ recovery.
( Couch bound , with a pain equivalent, of a good hard kick to the nuts .)
But hey ,That’s what pain meds are for.
DONATING ORGANS AFTER YOU’RE DEAD IS NICE , BUT WHY NOT GO FOR THE EXTRA GUSTO .
DONATE YOUR ORGANS WHILE YOU ARE STILL ALIVE . NOW THAT’S EXTREME .
My name is Vermin Supreme, I approve of this message . Thank you for your time.

We are stardust we are carbon, we are bio bags of organs .

MASS. PASSES FIRST MANDATORY TOOTHBRUSH LAW IN THE NATION
from the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care :
“Is it true that we have to brush children’s teeth?”
“EEC’s new regs require educators to assist children in brushing their teeth whenever children remain in care for more than four hours and/or consume a meal in child care.
One in four Massachusetts kindergartners have dental decay; 50% of which goes untreated. Low income children affected almost twice as often as their more affluent peers.
Early tooth loss is linked to failure to thrive, impaired speech development, poor concentration, and reduced self-esteem.
