Is this right?
My husband's doctors have given him 2 to 5 years to live because they found out that his kidneys are only functioning at 35%. He has had diabetes for about 6 years now. The first 2 years he didn't take his medicine because he didn't "feel sick", therefore he "wasn't sick", he says; next two years he started taking his medicine like he should and now he's doing everything he should to be taking care the best possible care that he can but the damage he's done from walking around with his blood sugar at 500 for such a long period of time is irreversible.
So now we are discussing kidney transplants. I would be more than willing to give him a kidney if my blood type was the same as his and all the conditions for his body to accept a kidney from me was right but it would be more likely that his mother's kidney would be better for him and more likely that his body wouldn't reject it. And his mom has emailed me wanting me to give her the names of his doctor's so she can look into this, however my husband does not , in no way , absolutely does not want his mother to go thru with something like this and if he found out that i gave her the names of his doctors he would friek out! But his mother is adamant about looking into this, so this is my dilema. What do you all think is the right thing to do? If i don't give her the names of his doctors I know she will be upset with me.
