Kidney donor: That is very admirable of you to want to help out in such a way at such a young age. No, transplants fail for reasons other than rejection, and the conditions resulting in a failed transplant generally involve damaging the transplanted organ. however, if you are a match that is the first step to a successful situation for you both GOOD LUCK to BOTH OF YOU
