Apparently, someone has found difficulty in appreciating my
attempt at what has been termed "quirksome humor". In case anyone else gets
the same notion, I have forwarded my response which you may peruse below.
The sender will, of course, remain anonymous. For those of you who
know me, or this particular set of circumstances, reading this may reveal to
you my true identity. If that is the case, please keep it to yourself.
Tomorrow, I will tell you about the Serious Cows. That should offend no one.
(Except maybe door-to-door salesmen).

Subject: Re: [RR] two Kidneys for
sale
Two years ago, I spent many nights in Baylor hospital with My friend,
Steve Donaldson. He was waiting for a kidney. He was dying. His three boys
were my pioneers. At one point, I seriously considered giving Steve my
kidney. I probably would have, had not Lavonia, Steve's wife, tested good
for a match. She gave Steve the kidney. He went into rejection. Almost
died. Pulled through, after much prayer and a lot of fighting. Six months
later, after all that, Steve died. Two days before Christmas, last year. A
few weeks later, my wife and I picked the boys up to take them to the
Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo. That was the last time we saw Lavonia
alive. She was missing two weeks later. They just found her bones a few
weeks ago. Sir, I know very much about this subject, and have
experienced and witnessed first hand the pain derived from it. And I know
that humor can be found in anything. You, (somewhat understandably) seem
not to find yourself in a position to appreciate such humor right now.
That's OK. You are Blessed, sir, to have your wife right now. You will be
even more blessed, when you learn how to laugh about it. And you will be
much the wiser, when you learn to learn a little about the circumstances
before you jump to conclusions.
God Bless you real good.
