A mum of two gave her own dad a "second chance at life" by donating one of her organs.
Alan Jones, 68, was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in his mid-20s and until two years ago he had led a normal life. However, when his kidney function severely deteriorated he was told his best chance of a long-term quality of life was to receive a kidney from a living donor.
After doctors explained to Alan's daughter, Kirsty Poole, living donor organ would have many advantages, including working almost straight away after surgery and lasting longer, the thought of donating her own kidney crossed her mind.
