Kidney is worth $1.5 million
Is it possible to assign a monetary value to a kidney? According to a man in New York City it is, and apparently he feels his kidney is worth $1.5 million.
A Long Island doctor is demanding that his estranged wife give him back the kidney he donated to her seven years ago…or the equivalent value of the kidney which he says is $1.5 million.
At first I laughed out loud at this news story, but when I read that the man’s wife allegedly had an affair, I actually hope he gets what he’s asking for (whether the kidney or the cash). If it’s true – and I have no idea if it is – and that’s how she repayed him for saving her life, I feel like she owes him something!

Hey there! I’m so glad I found your blog… and I love the layout! You are on my blogroll. :)
I read this story and felt so bad for the man. Feelings are so ficke, it seems. For her sake, I hope the women’s kidney lasts longer than her marriage did.
