That sucks for this guy, but man does he know revenge. Any woman (or man) that cheats is scum in my book.
He won't win his case of course since it was a "gift" and not a loan to his wife.
ARDEN CITY, N.Y. (WABC) -- A Long Island surgeon embroiled in a nearly four-year divorce proceeding wants his estranged wife to return the kidney he donated to her, although he says he'll settle for $1.5 million in compensation.
Dr. Richard Batista, a surgeon at Nassau University Medical Center, told reporters at his lawyer's Long Island office Wednesday that he decided to go public with his demand for kidney compensation because he has grown frustrated with the negotiations with his estranged wife.
Dr. Batista fought back tears after talking about a bitter divorce battle he's embroiled in with his wife of 15 years.
"There's no deeper pain or betrayal from somebody you loved and devoted your whole life to," he said.

Batista's a full-time surgeon, who married Dawnell in 1990. They would later have three children and eventually he saved her life by donating his kidney to her in 2001.
She filed for divorce in July 2005, although he claims she began having an extramarital affair 18 months to two years after receiving the kidney transplant, his attorney, Dominick Barbara said.
Batista says she had an affair.
"I felt humiliated betrayed as a person, a man, a husband and father," adds Dr. Batista.
Now as part of the divorce settlement Dr. Batista isn't asking for the million dollar home they shared in Massappequa, he's asking for his kidney back, or to get paid for it.
Douglas Rothkopf, the attorney representing Dawnell Batista, told Eyewitness News, "The facts aren't as represented by Dr. Batista. We will be addressing the issues before the judge within the next few days."
Batista, 49, said he has no regrets about donating the kidney, only about the failed marriage.
He still recalls the day after the surgery took place.
"There is no greater feeling on this planet. As God is my witness, I felt as if I could put my arm around Jesus Christ. It was an unbelievable; I was walking on a cloud. To this day I would still do it again," he said.
That sucks for this guy, but man does he know revenge. Any woman (or man) that cheats is scum in my book.
He won't win his case of course since it was a "gift" and not a loan to his wife.

when you look at it.
You'll see it's all a show
:whistle:
ahaha, what?
"those silly brits must have gotten those blasphemous urges out of their system now, so what's the harm"
edit: okay it wasn't banned by the church itself but it did stir up a fair amount of controversy.
We understand your parents were fundies. We just have a hard time understanding that they were surprised to discover blasphemous material in a Monty Python production.
I was going to go with Princess Bride but i can't find a good picture
usually very conservative people don't have stuff like that on their radar
these people don't need reason or thinking, what did you expect?
But the conservative people are the ones complaining about those things in the first place.
edit: but you're right, since i don't know how old mysst is it's quite possible that his parents did not catch wind of the controversy in the late seventies.
You could, it's still your DNA.
However, it's likely pumped full of drugs and would need to be detoxed first before it could be reattached.
My guess is he'd just throw it away and is looking for her to go through dialysis because it was a lifelong gift meant for lifelong love. What a whore though. "Here's a kidney baby" "oh hey there poolboy".
I thought that was heretoinform
I was about to say
the Catholic Church neither has the authority nor is in the habit of banning jack squat.
In case nobody has said it yet, there's actually a movie about this, y'know.
