So she was supposed to die because she had an addiction? What some call a disease?

Are you trying to argue that alcoholism shouldn’t be a factor AT ALL for liver donations, or that living donations shouldn’t also need to meet the standard full liver donation standards?

I’m wondering what you are arguing.
