Congratulations on having a condition that gives you some control over whether you need an organ transplant in the future. I assume that nobody on HN cares whether you keep your own organs functioning, and nobody thinks you are a nutter just for "having opinions about the topic": they object to your declaration that they should prioritize not needing an organ transplant because of your values and the circumstances of your own life.

That's a fun contrarian statement too. If only there was ever anything written about preventative health care and lifestyle improvements. Maybe you can publish the first book on it!
- DoreenMichele 3y agoCongratulations on having a condition that gives you some control over whether you need an organ transplant in the future. I'm not supposed to have any such control. I exercised it anyway, thus my opinions. I don't expect anyone to care about me or my opinions or my agenda and I don't know what the PC language is for this. There seems to be none. But "more access to transplants" isn't your only option if you are thinking long term about your own health issues.
