Along the Lines of "They Don't Tell You Everything"

A friend of mine dropped by yesterday. She works at a hospital. She was talking about a teenager she had been working with for the last three years. He has some type of lung disease. She recently purchased a new vehicle and had a 1991 Honda Civic. She heard he was looking for a car. She sold him the car for $200.00. Her boyfriend was angry with her because she had essentially given him the car. ( We are hoping he becomes an ex-boy friend.)

The teenager comes from a poor family and is in desperate need of a lung transplant but can not get on the list because of his family's housing and financial situation. He will die within a year or two without new lungs. Evidently the criteria for the such things as transplants is much more than the health of the patient. Sometimes I don't want to have another lesson on how life is not fair.
