I find it very strange begging for an organ donation in public. Here in Germany only very close related persons are allowed as donors. Otherwise it would be suspected that the organ is paid for what is strictly prohibited. But in the USA they are obviously more broadminded. I would never post such a begging letter here, I think it's not the right place. Possibly I'm a bit more sensitive with this thing because I'm concerned myself, I am waiting for a kidney since almost 6 years now.

I sincerely hope she'll find a donor soon .Must be difficult to live with a sword of Damocles on top of the head .Here in France we have 800 liver transplants per year .

In the information area on the link above, it discusses what happens after the operation. It says the recovery is roughly 6 weeks. Is that for both the donor & recipient, or just the donor? Are there other risks for donors? I can look it up, of course, but thought if someone could post it here with a simplified answer it would be more helpful for everyone to read.
