Yeah. If your relationship is on the rocks, give her a kidney because you're a good person and you don't want to see a human being suffer.
Don't give her a kidney expecting a romance movie ending.

They did that story on house. Lesbian couple on the rocks, one of them needed a kidney (or maybe a liver) and the partner agreed to donate because "she can't leave me now."
Actually I liked that episode a lot because it was one of the first episodes of any show I saw where gay people were just people and not HEY CHECK IT OUT WE HAVE GAY FOLKS ON OUR SHOW WE'RE SO CONTROVERSIAL.
I hear that in my head as Cartman, not as the little girl from Aliens.
And now so do I.
Which makes it better.
Is there much left to discuss here? Not in an I'ma-lock-this sense, but... really? Does anyone disagree that the move is some combination of desperation/tit-for-tat/douchery that will go nowhere in court and serve just to sensationalize the issue, and that the woman sounds like she's being a bitch?
I'm not sure where to go with this, other than lulz.
Something wrong with lulz? This is some pretty unique lulz, too. Let's not squander that.

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
I'd love to see her try to counter by billing him for all the....spousal "services"...provided during the marriage to offset the kidney suit. Seems like the kind of chick that would always be all "not tonight honey, I've got a headache" or "not tonight honey, I've got dialysis."

That would seem risky with a doctor for a husband. He could just be all "Here's 200 mg of vicodin for the pain. Now spread 'em, so I can give you 1000 mg of man love."

That's not really all that much man love.
Maybe that's why she left.

Haha nice, that was a last minute addition. I may write a script and try my luck with this.
I apologize in advance for actually discussing the topic :P :
I don't see how people are shitting on the guy who donated his kidney to save his wife's life? As far as I can see he is the put upon party here: he was the one who was cheated on, he's the one who can't see his kids, he's the one who gave up an organ for someone who betrayed him. Obviously this is only his side of the story, but if he's telling the truth his ex-wife is clearly a huge bitch (of course its not likely he's blameless in this). He's not asking for his organ back, that's legally, morally, and medically impossible; he's just lashing out legally/monetarily and I feel for him. That said, Medopine is completely right, the kidney was a gift and there's doesn't seem to be any way he is entitled to anything. Anyone actually know the relevant laws?

Because it was given with no expectation of compensation and he has no further property rights in it.
What's the exchange rate there?

There are very good reasons why organs are donations and not valued goods.

The second one of those made me laugh way more than it should have.

Man, somebody comes asking for my kidney I'm not thinking romance movie. I'm thinking Lost. I'm telling them to fuck right off.
