He said; “The first time we went to see the doctor, the doctor said that they don’t encourage kidney harvesting and selling of human organs, that the donor has to be a family member, a friend, whether your daughter or your brother or your son. After the doctor said this, right there my wife decided to take all the tests.
‘‘All the tests that she took, everything came out positive that she was compatible with me. So for this I am giving God the glory and thank God that I don’t have to wait for one year or two years because I know it’s not really easy to get a donor. That’s why I really want to thank my wife”.
