A Brooklyn woman is alive thanks to the help of a total stranger from Maryland.
Liza Porat lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, and saw a post on a community board that said a 41-year-old woman in New York needed a kidney.
"She was very emotional, telling me I was her angel," Porat said. "I was emotional, but I didn't want her to be more emotional. And I didn't want someone to feel as though, oh, she owes me her life because perhaps I saved hers.""I was looking for a kidney every day," Ilyasov said. "No one from the family offered the kidney, but the stranger from a different state, anyone would be shocked.
"My best friend from childhood was the recipient of a kidney, so, I was actually going to donate to a charity to in her honor," Porat said. "I saw Chaya's notice said please, if somebody, please help me save a life, desperate need of a kidney donor, type A blood.""It's a mitzvah, a good deed, I'm into mitzvahs, Jewish people are into mitzvahs, religious people," Lipschutz said.
