You have said this a couple times now. I can see where someone having gone through what you did, might feel this way, but I don't necessarily subscribe to this. I don't question god....I think he knew what he was doing. I think the kidney's are so important and yet fairly vulnerable, that god gave us a spare. The idea of sharing one, with a family member, while a very generous and loving gift, should be a fairly rare occurrence. A last resort type of thing. I don't think god intended for everyone to be giving away a kidney that they may need later in life.
