I think it's strange that various transplants are treated differently as well, I imagine there is some long rediculous story surrounding such nonsense. I've been part of a group around the US who are trying to get Living Kidney donors included in laws that protect them from health and insurance discrimination. Laws exist for marrow donors but solid organ donors were never included. Ahhh political posturing.

@jolinda I thought the laws had changed about excluding donors from health insurance discrimination. When my daughter was pushing to be a living donor for me that was one of my concerns but I was sure that sometime since then I had heard that was no longer true.
