A member asked:

Is it ok to transplant all my organs to my mom so that she can recover?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Not very practical. If she has a failing organ such as a kidney or liver, one kidney or part of the liver could be transplanted. Multiple organs from a living donor is rarely if ever done.
