医生:通常是可以,但以你的情况,有点复杂,另一只已经畸形了。
苏珊:好吧,我不会带它去参加什么肾选美大赛的。
Voice-over: It's something we need to be reminded of whenever our world has been turned upside down. Come the morning, life goes on. We pull ourselves together and go on shopping sprees...or reignite a love affair...or go back to work. Yes, we must remember life will get better...unless it doesn't.
Susan:You took out my kidney?
Doctor: It had ruptured. You were bleeding internally. We had no choice.
Susan:Oh, my god.But you can get by on one kidney, right?
Doctor: Usually. But in your case, it's a little more complicated. The other one is deformed.
Susan: Well, fine. I won't enter it in any kidney beauty contests.
Doctor: The point is, it's only operating at about 5%. If that number drops any lower, you're at serious risk of renal failure.
Susan:How do I not know this? I-I've never had any serious health problems.
Doctor: That's because the other kidney was doing such a great job of taking up the slack.
Susan:You mean the one you took?
Doctor: Yes.
