I see, so in your opinion a “poor medical decision” should arbitrarily be overturned by some scumbag politician acting in the name of the “Human Tissue Authority”. Are you nuts?

That isn't what I said at all. I would absolutely support the direct donation from daughter to mother. They have the RIGHT to make that decision. Personally, I feel it would have likely been a poor decision. That doesn't mean they don't have the right to make it.

However, now that all is said and done, the only comfort they CAN take is that some people were helped.

Why do you think it would likely have been a poor decision? Is it only because the mother’s body rejected a non-family donor’s kidney, previously?

I’m thinking that the daughter’s kidney would have been more suited to the mother, and had a more likely chance of success.
