there was a programme on BBC2 last night about donating kidneys for money in Iran. The doners were getting about £1,350.

How much would you sell a kidney for??

I'd accept £20,000

.. haha, its not that bad Soph!! i had keyhole surgery on my knee 3 months ago, totally painless! .. one minute you are lying on a bed chatting to the anaestatist, next minute you are waking up, and a nurse is offering you a cuppa tea!!
.. you feel a bit groggy for a bit, like a hangover, but it soon goes!!

i dont really know much about it but it's basicly when you dont have enough iron in your body and you become week, get headaches all the time and faint
