They love each other’s bodies.
Some things are just meant to be.

God bless them.
I would have been a little more careful about the symbolism ... that's all
Awwww.....what a sweet Valentine’s Day story.
I am a living donor, hepato hemiectomy transplant. I wish that all the living and healthy would consider willing their organs on death. To give the gift of life by your passing is good, it is very good. It is also very humbling. In a way you get to live on after your passing.
A gift by a living donor does have its risks, it is worth it. To give by a deceased donor has no risks and only gains for the living and the deceased.
Every day thousands of perfectly good organs are buried. Every day thousands die because they needed those organs.
Please give the gift of life. It is not only a gift to the recipient it is also a gift to yourself.
LOL, even here on FR, there are weirdos who think the medical community bands together and conspires to declare people dead just so they can grab their organs to make money.
Unbelievable but true.
Huh? Do you mean to refer to ones liver?
Thanks for posting such a sweet love story.
I'm not going to get in a pissing match with anyone ... uhhhh .... never mind
