I think the reluctance was due to the rest of her physical state.

Does it make sense to use a healthy organ in a body riddled with leukemia when there are better prospects awaiting transplants?

Sad story.

Dear mylife,

“Does it make sense to use a healthy organ in a body riddled with leukemia when there are better prospects awaiting transplants?”

Might not.

But the doctors take that into account when figuring out who gets the organ.

It’s not supposed to be the insurance company’s call.
