THANK YOU, Live donor question

[Guest guest]

Thanks to everyone for all their great help in answering my question. Wow, I new it was a serious procedure but not that serious. I also didn't think the donor could be in such risk. I learned a lot.

That (matching blood type) is one of those things that seems to vary from site to site:Variations I've seen:Blood type - compatible donor (O can give to any ABO type) v. matching ABO type (O can only give to O)Relationship - must be a relative v. donor may not even have known recipient before donationAge - at least 18, but upper cutoff varies from 45 to 60

-----Original Message-----First of all, according to Baylor, the donor must be the same blood type

Baylor has only done 4 living donor transplants since 2002. I think 3 were for children. I do know the one they did at Baylor Dallas passed away after surgery.
