The guy that is suing his soon-to-be ex-wife to get his kidney back, that he donated to her?
He said it's because she cheated on him.

God, how petty and childish people can be!:frown:

    well I personally don't think it's petty - he gives her a kidney and then she goes out and cheats on him with a physical therapist - personally I find that to be a real huge slap in the face

    infidelity in any form really sucks - but you risk your life - and give something so precious as an organ to someone who you think is the love of your life and she goes and screws her therapist on ya -

    well maybe she could have given him some respect and divorced him before she cheated on him


    I do agree asking for the Kidney back is a bit much - I'd laugh if she had it removed and gave it back to him -

    Legally I don't think he has a chance as the kidney was a gift - but hey he's pissed and I don't really blame him - I've seen other jilted spouses send flyers - post stuff on web sites - he's just doing it in a bigger way

    I actually saw that he doesn't actually expect her to give it back so instead he is asking for like a million dollars in restitution. Pure insanity!

    I heard any even sadder thing today on the Today Show. Some man in CA tried to sell his 14 yr old daughter into marriage with an 18 yr old for 100 CASES OF BEER! Then when he didn't get the beer he called the cops and told them. He was obviously arrested. Weirdos! Poor girl...I hope she gets help...

    Maybe I would feel different if it was me but I take it she needed the transplant to live.

    If she cheated on him that was of course a crappy thing to do and he should be angry,hurt...etc.
    I can`t blame him for walking away but if he cared at one point about her he should still be glad he was able to keep her alive and take the higher ground on that point.

    Now he needs to be on that show worlds dumbest criminals - like the one guy who filled out a job application with his real name and address at a convience store - and then an hour later came back and robbed it

    I understand that she cheated and she is a MEGA jerk for doing that, but him demanding back a bodily organ is just too much. It reminds me of being a little kid, and getting mad when your friends wouldn't play the game the way you like, and taking your ball and going home. Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers here.:flowerforyou:

    I think it is petty.

    If he gave the kidney for the right reasons, to save her life, because he loved her, then he'd never think to ask for it back, or for the monetary worth of it.

    If it were a kid who gave his best friend his cool toy, but demanded it back when the best friend began to play with another kid, we'd call it petty.

    I am in no way comparing kids and infidelity, but the infidelity is unrelated to the gifting of the kidney.
    (Although it is a HUGE slap in the face for her to cheat with her physical therapist. Probably an unintentional slap.)

    Another legal reason I don't think it can fly--- it's puts a price on a body part, and therefore makes selling of body parts legal. That would be a no-no.

    Infidelity is a very touchy subject for me - so probably shouldn't have posted here in the first place


    :flowerforyou:
  • new here, but this a subject close to my heart.
    My man had a kidney transplant just 4 months ago, from his brother,
    without it he would be on dialysis by now, which, if you don't know, is a life consuming and difficult process, and he would probably be dead in 5 years, he is doing fantastic, back to work at a very physically demanding job, and grateful for every day he has of good health.

    The kidney was given out of love, if your feelings change, that is too bad, to consider trying to take back an organ is disgraceful and selfish, no matter how upset this person is about the infidelity it certainly does not warrant the return of a life, w/o the kidney this person will have a consideribly shortened life span and a very reduced quality of life, yes being cheated on hurts, but it won't kill you.

    Maybe too close to this situation to think objectivly but revenge solves nothing.

    No, it is quite alright. Infidelity is a sore subject for me too, I have been cheated on in both serious relationships I have ever been in, and I have been the "cheater" as well. It sucks no matter what side of the issue you are on.
