Monstrous Tracy Morgan Dumps Kidney Donor Girlfriend for Hotter Chick
February 01, 2011 07:00 PM EST
comments: 1
Comedian Tracy Morgan is hardly the funny, lovable guy he presents to the world. The man is obviously a monster. Just ask his ex-girlfriend Tanisha whom he first kicked to the curb in October.

It all started when Morgan was diagnosed with diabetes. According to Media Take Out, the 30 Rock star refused to take his disease seriously, and he continued to live a "reckless" lifestyle. The result was that he soon destroyed his kidneys. Ironically, the person who came to his rescue was none other than Tanisha who was, for some unfathomable reason, still in love with him.

"Tracy and her [sic] had broken up in October, and she wanted to get back together with him," claims an inside source. "I won't say that that's the only reason she gave him the kidney, but it was a major factor."

Yes, Tanisha bravely underwent major surgery to have one of her kidneys removed, so that Tracy Morgan wouldn't have to spend the rest of his life undergoing dialysis treatments. Or die. Tracey received Tanisha's kidney on December 18, 2010--"less than two months from the date they separated."

Fortunately, Tanisha survived the surgery and is doing well. Unfortunately, her sacrifice didn't endear her to Morgan as much as she'd hoped. Apparently, she "needed to give Tracy more than just a kidney for him to get back with her."

Whatever that "something more" might have been is doomed to remain a mystery. Soon after the surgery, Morgan and his healthy, new, life-saving kidney moved on to another girlfriend. Or as the insider put it:

"Tracy thanked her and he's paying [her hospital] bills. But he's not interested in getting back with her."

Her hospital bills? Gee, that was big of him.

Tracy Morgan is a monster. End of story.

I am really surprised that she passed the psychological/social worker review to be his donor...    She would not have gotten past the panel at the center where I am trying to get a live donor transplant.

So if someone gives you a kidney you need to either stay with that person forever.  Or you will owe that person forever.
The key word i would think is Giving.  She wasnt forced to give anything.  And in her mind she thought maybe he will stay with or marry me.

Maybe she will sue him and try to get her kidney back.

I mean really.   She gave/donated a kidney which people do everyday.  If she only gave it to Keep her man she truly needs a shrink.  I mean does she know Morgans past he has been a player for a long time.  Thats like asking Dennis Rodman to stay with one girl.  Aint gonna happen.

And im would think morgan is paying more then her hospital bill.

Okay, can we double check the source here?  "Celebs Gather?"  Oooooh, bet that's a serious news organization! 

So, can we not jump to calling him a "monster" until we get some information directly from him, and the donor as well?

I don't think he is a monster..... if they had never broken up and he stayed with her to just get the kidney ..that would be different.

Is she complaining or did someone just hear about it  and publicize it?   If she is now complaining.. I agree that she should have had more counseling from a social worker BEFORE she went ahead with the donation.

Is George Lopez a monster because now he and his wife have split up?

She was wrong to try to use her kidney to hold him hostage. Manipulative tactics like that make it sound like he was right to break up with her in the first place. He was wrong, and a (insert bad words) if he deliberately misled her into thinking a reunion was possible on condition that he got the kidney.

I agree that it is the job of the transplant team to ferret out any potential conflicts between donor and recipient. But obviously they only know what the parties tell them.

Yeah, you're right JB, not a major news source, but I try to put a variety of stories here. It makes for good conversation.

carol: some people have said that George Lopez's wife was devastated at their break up and did not see the split coming. Would she have done things differently if she had? Who knows?

Thanks Karol... I had heard George Lopez and his wife had split up but had no idea who left whom.... etc.

Makes me think of the Long Island case where the hubbie sued to get his kidney back...

I don’t think he is a monster for accepting a kidney. Sure he might have lived recklessly concerning his diabetes and then lost his kidneys.
How many people would say no thanks to a kidney transplant? If my ex husband (whom I still dislike) had offered to give me a kidney….I’d say let’s do it! The way I see it when you offer to give your kidney to someone in need then it’s not yours anymore….it belongs to the new recipient. You shouldn’t expect anything in return for your donation.
If her only reason for donating to Tracy Morgan was in hopes they would get back together and maybe get married….well that’s her own fault. She has no one to blame but herself.
