Title: Jonah Lomu
Post by: MooseMom on September 27, 2011, 04:18:59 AM

For any of you Aussies out there who are rugby fans and follow/fear the All Blacks, I read this today...Jonah Lomu has had a kidney transplant and is back in hospital for an undisclosed illness.  I don't know much about rugby, but while I lived in England, you couldn't be a sports far and not hear of Jonah Lomu.

I was just really surprised to hear this.

Really?  There are no rugby fans on IHD?  No one has heard of Jonah Lomu?  Well, for those of you who would like an update, it seems that Lomu's transplanted kidney is failing; he is now on daily dialysis, and his wife has offered to give him a kidney if they have matching blood types.
