My friend has a condition called 'addison's disease' which is a fault with his adrenal glands. if i'm a match, can i donate?

Not transplantable: You're so nice to offer a transplant, but Addison's isn't amenable to transplant therapy. Actually, it's quite easily managed provided the patient is compliant. Jack Kennedy had it while president. Best wishes.
