To the author: thank you, you made my day. It had been a very, very long time since I last read an article on the Internet that felt written by a human being - with humor, some poetry, and science.
Kidney failure and jokes... OK, I feel obliged to share a true story. A relative of mine donated their kidney to one of their siblings. A couple of years ago we were all playing "naughty Santa" AKA "white elephant". It was the donee's turn and they chose to steal the donor's present. The donor replied "oh man, that's just like when you stole my kidney!" I've never laughed and cried so much in my life.
