Young woman desperately needs help! Are you blood type O?

"He who saves one  life, it's as if he saved the entire world - Talmud
Sanhedrin

Young woman in  Israel desperately needs a kidney!

If you are blood  type O and in good health, you can save her life!

·        Yes, one does just  as well with one kidney as with two!

"Just think people  have no problem having only one kidney, so we have to
ask, why did Hashem give  us two kidneys? Perhaps it is so you would have an
extra one to donate and save  a life! - Dr. Stuart Greenstein, Shomer
Shabbat  Kidney Transplant Surgeon, Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx, NY

·        Kidney donors live  longer! (see quote by another doctor below)

I can put you in touch  with others who have donated a kidney in Israel -
and all are doing great,  Boruch Hashem!
Being a kidney donor  myself, I can also give you all the info you need!
Please come forward to  help save a life!
Sincerely,
Chaya  Lipschutz

WHAT RABBONIM HAVE TO  SAY ABOUT KIDNEY DONATION
"Fortunate is  the lot of all (kidney) donors - Hashem will surely reward
them, bring good  health to them, and theirs to their children and their
children's children, for  all eternity" - Rabbi Yisroel  Belsky, Rosh Yeshiva,
Yeshiva Torah V'daas, Brooklyn, NY
"The z'chus,  the merit ,of this mitzvah, of donating a kidney, will stand
by the donor,  insuring that he be blessed from heaven with a long life,
years of good life ,  full of simchas, suffering from neither harm nor  loss."
- Rabbi Michel Yehuda  Lefkowitz, Rosh Yeshiva Ponevezh Yeshiva, Bnei Brak,
Motetzes Gedolei HaTorah of  Degel HaTorah
WHAT DOCTORS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT KIDNEY  DONATION:
"We are  born with approximately 4-5 times the kidney function that we
need, to be  healthy and stay off of dialyisis- to not have kidney failure. So
by donating  one of your kidneys, you are still left with with 2-3 times the
amount of kidney  function that you need to be healthy and lead a normal
life" - Dr. Joseph Del Pizzo. Assistant  Professor of Urology, Director,
Laproscopic Surgery, New York - Presbytarian  Hospital - Weill Corneil Medical
Center, New York, NY.
“Kidney  donation is a relatively SAFE OPERATION, and many donors will
never feel the  loss of their second kidney. So giving up a kidney causes no
disadvantage to  your long-term health. In fact, studies have shown, that
KIDNEY DONORS ACTUALLY  LIVE LONGER than the general population - because donors
come from a pool of  people in good health"- Dr. Michael Edye,  Adjunct
Associate Professor of surgery, Mt. Sinai Medical Center, New York,  NY
Very  Safe Operation" - Dr. Jay Levine,  General Surgeon, St., Mary's
Health Care, West Michigan, MI
"There's  a lot of misconceptions about kidney donation and a lot of fear.
But if people  take the time to get the facts, they find out the risks are
very minimal. People  are born with two kidneys. You only need one." -
Michelle Winsor, Kidney Transplant Coordinator, Sharp Memorial Hospital, San
Diego, CA
